Installing Administration Services Console

Because Oracle Essbase Administration Services Console requires access to the host servers in the application tier, it should be installed on a machine that has network access to these servers. In the reference topology (illustrated in Standard Deployment Topology), Administration Services Console is installed on the client workstation (CLIENTHOST1) within the DMZ.

To install Administration Services Console:

  1. On a client machine that has network access to the host servers in the application tier, define a network drive (for example, Z:/) that maps to the shared disk directory into which you extracted Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System software (for example, //sharedhost/sharedlocation/downloads/epm_unzipped).
  2. On the mapped network drive, navigate to EssbaseAdministrationServicesConsole directory; for example, to Z:/EssbaseAdministrationServicesConsole.
  3. Double-click EASConsole.exe.
  4. Follow onscreen prompts to install Administration Services Console.
  5. In Summary, click Finish.
  6. Start Administration Services Console by selecting Start, then Oracle EPM System, and then Start Administration Services Console.
  7. Log in using the FndHost1 server name and the system administrator user name and password that you identified.
