Configure Web Server

  Specify Web server information, or click or select Next to accept the defaults.

Information in this page comes from applications already deployed and recorded in the Shared Services Registry and applications you are deploying in this configuration sequence.

You need only configure the Web server on the machine on which you want to run the Web server. EPM System Installer also installs Oracle HTTP Server on the machine hosting Essbase Server, but you need not configure this instance. (You can leave the “Configure Web Server” task “Pending.”)

Caution!

If you have already configured the Web server and you configure any additional products, you must run EPM System Configurator again and select the Foundation Services Configure Web Server task. Then, restart the Web server and EPM Workspace.

Note:

Enabling SSL for the Web server requires manual configuration. See the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Security Administration Guide.

The following table describes options for the Web server configuration.

EPM System Configurator FieldsDescriptionYour Information

Web Server Type

Select the Web server.

 

Web Server Port

Specify the Web server port. If you use SSL, ensure that the port number that you enter is a secure port.

 
Location of Web server

Specify or browse to the location of the Web server.

 
Set the logical web address for the web applications to the web server

Select this option if you want EPM System Configurator to set the logical Web address for all Web applications to the Web Server. Use this option if you want to use the Web server as the load balancer.

If you do not select this option, EPM System Configurator uses the address of the physical Web application as the logical address.
