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

Thanks,

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.

Hi!

Very nice work Tim! :o)

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 ?

Thanks by advance,

Regards,

Steve

Hi Steve,

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.
