You use the Admin Server Properties window to manage Essbase Administration Server.
In the SMTP Server box of the Configuration tab, you specify the host that is running the SMTP system that you want to use to enable administrators to email information directly from Administration Services Console to other administrators or to Oracle Technical Support. The host entry can be a DNS host name or an IP address. Essbase Administration Server verifies that it can connect to the specified server. See Specifying an E-mail Server.
Also, in the Configuration tab, you can view Essbase Administration Server version and variable information:
Admin Server Version
ARBORPATH—The location is set internally when Essbase Administration Server is started and overrides (but does not replace) the value for the ARBORPATH system environment variable, if the environment variable is set on the Essbase Administration Server computer.
ESSLANG—For information about ESSLANG, see the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.
In EPM System security mode, Administration Services is configured to reference a Shared Services installation. The Configuration tab displays Shared Services information:
Shared Services server name
Shared Services server port
Security configuration—The path to the Shared Services security configuration
SSL—Indicates whether Essbase Administration Server communicates with Essbase Server in SSL mode
You use the Data Storage tab to specify information about the embedded database that is used to store Log Analyzer information:
JDBC RDBMS—Name of the embedded database
JDBC archive—Name of the .jar file that contains the JDBC driver (blank because the JDBC driver is installed with Administration Services)
JDBC driver
JDBC URL—Path to the Administration Services repository
JDBC user name
JDBC password
JDBC pool size—Initial size of the connection pool for the database
