Although, this is no longer the premier-supported version of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oracle.com\/us\/products\/applications\/performance-management\/overview\/index.html\">Hyperion EPM<\/a>, I thought it was a good place to start looking into deployment concerns and challenges, since it is the start of the 11g line. I started my experiment with two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.virtualbox.org\/\">Virtualbox <\/a>Windows XP instances: a 4 GB one for the database repository, shared services and Hyperion Financial Reports, and a 1 GB instance for Essbase. Full disclosure: the instances had been created previously, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oracle.com\/technetwork\/database\/database-technologies\/express-edition\/overview\/index.html\">Oracle Express Edition 11g<\/a> was already installed on my database\/SS server.<\/p>\n<p>So, in total the effort took about 15 hours, including a couple false starts, restarts and rabbit holes. I came away with some tips for future:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure you are using a browser which is compatible with your version of Hyperion EPM. I spent an hour trying to figure out why Shared Services was not working, only to discover that 11.1.1.3 does not work with the latest Firefox or Chrome.<\/li>\n<li>Do not use server names that include hyphens &#8211; they break a lot of processes in the installation. I had to back out and restart because of this, after renaming my servers.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Sequencing matters. Here is what I followed:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<ol>\n<li>Install and configure Foundation\/Shared Services first,<\/li>\n<li>Install the various products (HFR, Essbase).<\/li>\n<li>Do a separate install for Essbase Administration Services, <strong>after<\/strong> Essbase is installed (including the server, client and EAS client).<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0If you wish to install the EAS web client, make sure you have an app server installed first (Weblogic, Tomcat, etc).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This was a fun effort, I&#8217;m looking forward to deploying a few other apps in the instance, as well as bumping it up a version to the currently supported EPM 11.1.2.3 in future exercises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This effort came out of an interest in seeing how long it would take to stand up a minimal environment for Hyperion EPM 11.1.1.3.
