Configuring Essbase on ESSHOST1

  1. If you are using Windows 2016, refer to 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.
  2. On ESSHOST1, launch EPM System Configurator: From the Start menu, select Oracle EPM System, and then EPM System Configurator (all instances).
  3. In EPM Oracle Instance, complete these steps, and then click Next.
    1. In Home directory for EPM Oracle instances, verify that the location of EPM Oracle Home directory is identical to that specified while configuring Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services (on FNDHOST1).
    2. In EPM Oracle instance name, enter Essbase1.

  4. If you installed Oracle Essbase on the same server as Foundation Services, skip this step. Otherwise, on the Set up Shared Services and Registry Database Connection screen, select Connect to a Previously Configured Shared Services Database, enter the connection information for the Oracle Hyperion Shared Services Registry database and the user name and password of the database account to use for accessing the database (recorded in Table 3-1), and then click Next.

    The data that you enter must match the data that you entered while configuring the Shared Services Registry on the Foundation Services server (FNDHOST1).
