Installing Essbase Server on ESSHOST1

To install Oracle Essbase on ESSHOST1:

Note:

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.

1. Log on to the Essbase host machine (ESSHOST1) as the deployment user, and 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. Create a local directory (not on the shared drive) to be used as the Essbase location for data (ARBORPATH). This location should be outside of the MIDDLEWARE_HOME location, for example: <Local Drive>:/epm_data.
3. From the mapped network drive, launch installTool.cmd.
4. In EPM System Installer, select a language, and then click OK.
   
   
   
5. In Welcome, verify that your system has passed all prerequisite checks, and then click Next.
   
   
   
6. In Destination, specify the MIDDLEWARE_HOME directory location exactly as set while deploying Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services on FNDHOST1, and then click Next.
   
   
   
7. In Installation Type, click Next.
   
   
   
8. In Product Selection, clear the selection (uncheck) from Uncheck All, and select the following component:

   Essbase Server under Essbase.

   Any required Foundation Services components are automatically selected.

   
   
   
9. In Confirmation, click Next to begin the installation of the selected components on ESSHOST1.
   
   
   
10. In Summary, click Finish after verifying that all components installed successfully.
