Restarting Essbase

Sometimes calculations might take longer than expected or you may need to stop a process for another reason.

The Job Library has a Stop button, but if Oracle Essbase has control of the process, that button won't be active. In that case, Service Administrators can stop and restart Essbase from within Profitability and Cost Management.

To stop and restart Essbase:

  1. Communicate with users to be certain that nothing critical is running and to notify them that Essbase is undergoing maintenance.

  2. Click Navigator button, and then Database. Click the Administration tab.

    A warning is displayed. It states that all active processes and connections to the application will be unusable until the restart is completed. You are advised to notify other users that there will be a disruption in service.

  3. Click Restart to initiate the shutdown and restart.
