Thank you Tim.. This will surely be helpful for me... i am working on Hyperion Planning and Financials, well is it necessary to install Essbase for same...?
Hello Tim, i am in the process of installing Hyperian Planning in our organization.. The socument given by you is quite useful.. and i was able to come to some conclusion when i read it.. is it necessary to install essbase for hyperian planning ..? also i am not able to download some patches .. can i get the total install DVD pack from somewhere ...?
I don't work with Planning at all, but fellow blogger John Goodwin has done a post that talks about installing pieces other than Essbase. You can see that post at http://john-goodwin.blogspot.com/2008/07/version-11-installation.html.
I have a question about possible prerequisite that you could have forgotten to mention.
I'm trying to connect SAP/BO BI4 to an ESSbase OLAP cube.
In this note "Recommendations for Configuring Essbase Middleware" from SAP Community Network, http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-23141 I read: "Prerequisite (before configuring ESSbase middleware) You have an Oracle client installed on your machine."
Do I need to install Oracle Net*Client ???
Bonus question: ;o) Can Oracle Essbase 11.1 client access a V9 ESSbase OLAP cube ?
I think the SAP documentation is incorrect as Essbase does not use SQL*Net. However, Essbase does have a client runtime component that is required for applications written using the Essbase C and VB API's. I would guess that the Business Objects connector requires the Essbase Runtime Client be installed and properly configured.

Grate Job. Thank you very much.
Thanks a lot, I was wondering if you could also create such a document for Oracle EPM planning?
Especially in a distributed configuration.
Thanks,
