Installation Sequence

EPM System Installer enables you to install, configure, and deploy multiple products on a machine at one time. EPM System Installer installs components in the correct order, so you can select as many products as you want to install on a machine at one time.

Note that EPM System Installer installs Oracle WebLogic Server on each machine where you install a web tier or Service tier component, including Oracle Essbase Server. The .jar files that are installed as part of WebLogic Server and Oracle common directory are used by EPM System Configurator as well as common services. Note that WebLogic Server does not need to run on the Essbase Server.

OPMN is installed with Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services on all machines where EPM System Configurator is used because OPMN is used to create the EPM Oracle instance structure.
