Configuration Prerequisites

Configuration prerequisite notes:

  • Ensure that host names resolve properly for each machine in the deployment. See Ensuring that Host Names Resolve.

  • Use the Repository Creation Utility (RCU) to create schemas to support Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Java web applications, and then modify RCU schema properties. See Creating Infrastructure Schemas Using Repository Creation Utility and Updating RCU Schema Properties. You must run RCU and modify RCU schema properties on each machine in your environment.

  • When you are deploying on a machine other than the machine hosting Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services, ensure that Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Server is running on the Foundation Services host machine ( FNDHOST1 ): On the Foundation Services host machine, start WebLogic Server Administration Server by selecting Start, then All Programs, then Oracle WebLogic, then User Projects, then EPMSystem, and then Start Admin Server for WebLogic Server.)

  • If you want to deploy Java web applications to a single managed server, you must be using WebLogic Server and have a 64-bit operating system.

  • For database configuration tasks, ensure that the database is running.

  • On Linux systems, ensure that ulimit is 4096. You can query for the current ulimit setting with the following command: ulimit -n.

  • If you plan to deploy EPM System products in an SSL-enabled environment, the SSL implementation that you choose affects the options that you select during configuration. Optionally, you can deploy non SSL and reconfigure to use SSL. See the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Security Configuration Guide .
