Configuring EPM System After Applying an Update

After installing Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System using the Apply Update installation option, you must perform the following tasks.

Note:

  1. Ensure that Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Server is running on the Foundation Services host machine (FNDHOST1).

  2. If you are using Windows 2016, see the post configuration information under the Oracle Hyperion Technology section in the Known Issues in 11.2.15 topic to enable support for Windows 2016 on Oracle Essbase 21c embedded with EPM 11.2.15.

  1. Launch EPM System Configurator using one of these methods:
    • From the Start menu, select Oracle EPM System, and then EPM System Configurator (all instances).

    • Open command prompt and run configtool.bat from this location: EPM_ORACLE_HOME/common/config/11.1.2.0.
  2. Follow the EPM System Configurator wizard and select this option in Configuration

    Note:

    Ensure that you select only those products that you configured in your prior release.
    • Deploy To Application Server for all Web apps.
    • Configure Application Server for Oracle Hyperion Financial Management. This step is not required if you are on Linux.
    • Configure Essbase Server

    Note:

    • essbase.cfg file from the prior release is retained following the update process.

    • The following SSL configuration settings are removed after the update process:

      • WALLETPATH
      • SSLCIPHERSUITES
      • ENABLESECUREMODE
    • The only supported value for ESSLANG is .UTF-8@Binary. The value of Esslang is automatically updated.

  3. Open command prompt and run stopWeblogic.cmd from this locaion: <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>/user_projects/domains/EPMSystem/bin/stopWeblogic.cmd to stop the WebLogic Server Administration Server.

  4. Configure Web Server last after all the hosts in the environment are configured.

    Note:

    Ensure that Set the logical address for the applications to this web server is selected on the Confugure Web Server page. Note that you cannot configure the hosts simultaneously. You must perform the configuration sequentially, one after the other.
