Updating Administration Services References to a Rehosted Essbase Server or Provider Services Server

You must perform Essbase Server rehosting steps before you perform this step. See Updating References to a Rehosted Essbase Server .

If the Essbase Server host and port have changed since the earlier release, you must make updates so that Administration Services recognizes the new Essbase data source. After upgrading, review and update the list of servers in the Administration Services Console.

  To update Administration Services references to a rehosted Essbase Server:

  1. Log in to the Administration Services Console.

    The Essbase Servers from the previous installation are listed.

  2. Review the list of Essbase Servers.

  3. Add, update, or delete servers as needed for the new deployment environment.

    When you add a new server, the Add Essbase Server dialog box displays a list of available servers that are in the upgraded installation, which it reads from the Shared Services Registry.

    Delete previous Essbase hosts from the Enterprise tree.

For details, see Administration Services Online Help.

If the Provider Services Server host and port have changed since the earlier release, you must make updates so that Administration Services recognizes the new location.

  To update Administration Services references to a rehosted Provider Services Server:

  1. Log in to the Administration Services Console.

    The Provider Services Servers from the earlier installation are listed.

  2. Review the list of servers.

  3. Add, update, or delete servers as needed for the new deployment environment.

    When you add a new server, in the Add Provider Server dialog box, enter the Provider hosts for the new installation: click URL (the Provider URL box is updated), and ensure that the port is correct. From the Authenticating Essbase Server menu select the active Essbase and then click OK.

  4. Delete previous Provider Services Server hosts from the Provider Servers tree.

If you are configuring all Essbase products at one time, continue to the next section. Otherwise, when you are done with this step, return to the Upgrading Checklist.
