Administration Services is running. See the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.
The admin user of Administration Services is automatically externalized to Shared Services if Essbase is deployed in Shared Services mode using the EPM System Configurator.
If you convert a stand-alone Essbase instance to Shared Services mode, you must externalize the admin user from Administration Services. See Administration Services Online Help for instructions.
Essbase sample applications, for example, Demo and Sample, are automatically added to the server. You can use these applications to become familiar with the provisioning process if you do not want to create an application.
