You can add multiple business rules to a cluster simultaneously. You may want to do this if, for example, your company decides to add another server to the network to help balance the performance load from additional users. After creating the new cluster and adding the old and new servers to it, you can add all of the rules to the cluster so users logging on to either server can launch business rules.
When you add a rule to a cluster, all locations within that cluster inherit the rule’s access privileges. This prevents you from having to assign access privileges for each location in the cluster individually.
To add business rules to a cluster:
Launch the Administration Console by selecting Start > Programs > Hyperion > Administration Services > Start Administration Services Console.
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.
In the left navigation frame of Administration Services, expand the Business Rules node. Then expand the Administration node.
Expand the Clusters node.
Under the Clusters node, right-click the cluster for which you want to add business rules and select Open.
The Cluster Editor is displayed. The Locations tab lists the locations in the cluster. The Access Privileges tab lists the access privileges for the cluster.
Select the Access Privileges tab.
Click Add Rules.
The Add to Location dialog box is displayed. It lists all of the rules you can add to this location.
In the Add to Location dialog box, select the check boxes next to the names of the business rules you want to add to this location.
Click OK to add the rules you selected.
