Preparation

Before you can target Oracle Hyperion EPM Shared Services, you must:

  1. Ensure that Java 1.6 or 1.7 is installed.

  2. Install client software

  3. Set up a target system administrator

Installing client software

Before you can target Oracle Hyperion EPM Shared Services:

  1. Install the Oracle Hyperion EPM Foundation Services without configuring its settings via the configuration tool

    or

    Manually copy the following directories from EPM server over to the instance server.

      <HYPERION_HOME>\common\SharedServices 
  <HYPERION_HOME>\common\JakartaCommons 
  <HYPERION_HOME>\common\XML 
  <HYPERION_HOME>\common\loggers 
  <HYPERION_HOME>\common\config 
  <HYPERION_HOME>\common\CSS 
  <HYPERION_HOME>\common\epmstatic

  2. Copy the following jar files into <HYPERION_HOME>\common\CSS from the following locations on the instance:

    • <ORACLE_HOME>\jdbc\jlib\ojdbc6.jar

      Where <ORACLE_HOME> is the directory of the Oracle database client files.

      For example, C:\Oracle\Middleware\dbclient64

    • <EPM_ORACLE_HOME>\oui\jlib\xmlparserv2.jar

      Where <EPM_ORACLE_HOME> is the directory of the Hyperion EPM System files.

      For example, C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1

  3. Create the directory: <HYPERION_HOME>\user_projects.

  4. Copy the <EPM_ORACLE_HOME>\config folder from the server into <HYPERION_HOME>\user_projects.

  5. Modify the reg properties file located in

    <HYPERION_HOME>\user_projects\config\foundation\11.1.2.0\reg.properties.

  6. Edit the jdbc.url references from localhost to the hostname of the server instance.

    For example; modify:

    jdbc.url=jdbc\:oracle\:thin\:@localhost\:1521\:admin

    to

    jdbc.url=jdbc\:oracle\:thin\:@10.0.93.201\:1521\:admin

Setting up a target system administrator
