Every instance of Profitability and Cost Management is composed of a unique combination of applications, hardware, software, databases, customizations, and so on. With such diversity in installations, any changes to the current configuration, such as new hardware or software, may result in changes in performance.
After installing a new release or patch, or after making substantial changes within your environment, including increases in data and users, or modeling style, some tuning of these components is probably required.
Performance tuning is an iterative process. To maximize performance, all components in your installation should be maintained, tuned and monitored on an ongoing basis. In addition to any modifications to your model, you may also need to tune the components listed in Profitability and Cost Management and Related Components.
It is difficult to supply definitive tuning solutions that will work in every situation. For example, different versions or patches may exhibit slightly different behavior that needs to be managed. Depending on your environment, the interplay between components may yield different results. Customization of this product or others that share the same environment may impact results.
This appendix is designed for information purposes only, to suggest some areas for examination, and to direct you to information sources that may help you to fine-tune your Profitability and Cost Management installation.
Caution! | Before experimenting with tuning, settings, and so on, make a backup of your databases and models. See Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Backup and Recovery Guide. |
