Adding a New Database Location

You can add a new database location to the Locations node. After you add the new location, you can edit it by copying access privileges for repository objects to it or deleting access privileges for repository objects from it.

Note:

Before you begin creating new locations, the Locations node lists only locations for the previous release of Business Rules. As you add new locations, you can refresh the Locations node to display all of your locations.

*  To create a database location:

  1. Launch the Administration Console by selecting Start > Programs > Hyperion > Administration Services > Start Administration Services Console.

  2. In the Analytic Administration Services Login dialog box, enter the Administration Services server name and your user name and password to log on to Administration Services. Then click OK.

  3. In the left navigation frame of Administration Services, expand the Business Rules node. Then expand the Administration node.

  4. Under the Administration node, right-click Locations and select New Location.

    The Select Location dialog box is displayed.

  5. In the Select Location dialog box, drill down to select a Planning or Essbase database location to copy.

  6. Click OK.

    The new location is added to the Locations node.

    Note:

    If the new location is not displayed under the Locations node, select Locations > Refresh to refresh the list of locations.
