Access Multiple Essbase Servers in EPM Shared Services

Using EPM Shared Services, you can configure a single point of end-user access from Smart View to multiple Essbase Server instances.

For independently deployed Essbase instances which are registered with EPM Shared Services for user authentication and role assignments, you can make all the Essbase Servers accessible as nodes under one centralized Smart View URL.

After you do so, Smart View users will be able to access all the Essbase Servers using just one URL in their connection panel.

To set up the centralized URL access,

  1. Register multiple Essbase servers with EPM Shared Services, and optionally with EAS Lite, using the instructions at: Manage Multiple Essbase 21c Servers in Shared Services and Administration Services

  2. Connect to Smart View, as described in Analyze an Application in Smart View. All registered Essbase servers should be listed in the connections panel.

  3. If you want to set up active-active/read-only clusters of one cube, see Configure Active-Active (Read-Only) Essbase Clusters.
