Essbase Failover Prerequisites

Before configuring the Oracle Essbase Failover:

  1. Create a directory in a shared network drive that is accessible to both the nodes (Primary and Secondary) for storing the Essbase <Applications Directory>. The mounted path should be the same on both the hosts.

    For example, on Linux, if u01/essbase_data is mapped to a Network File System (NFS) storage in the Primary node, then in every failover node, the same path, /u01/essbase_data, should be mapped to the same mounted storage.

  2. Install an http server or load balancer for managing the nodes. If you don’t have an http server or load balancer, you can follow steps to install Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) and configure Oracle HTTP Server.
