Installing EPM 11.2.2 on Windows

Now that my servers are ready (details in earlier blog), it's time to install EPM 11.2.2.

Downloaded the following software’s from edelivery: 

Oracle Hyperion Planning Plus 11.2.2.0.000 for Windows

Installation methods:

Let's see the different installation options:
  • (Windows) Double-click installTool.cmd in the root directory to which you extracted the EPM System Installer files.
  • (Windows) From a Windows command prompt, change to the root directory to which you extracted the EPM System Installer files and enter installTool.cmd -console.
  • Create a silent installation response file. Details here.
  • (Linux) Change to the root directory to which you extracted the EPM System Installer files and enter ./installTool.sh.
  • (Linux) Change to the root directory to which you extracted the EPM System Installer files and enter ./installTool.sh -console.

I will be going with the first option here. Before proceeding, let's look at the EPM System installer checks.
EPM System Installer checks for the following before installation:
  • Whether the computer host name resolves to an IP address. If the machine host name resolves to an IP address, EPM System Installer provides a warning. Oracle recommends that you resolve this issue and provide a host name instead of an IP address before proceeding (If you are using a hosts file to resolve your host name, the host name resolves to the first entry in your hosts file).✔
  • Whether your system has a supported operating system. ✔
  • Whether your system meets minimum memory requirements to run the installation. ✔
  • Whether your system meets environment variable prerequisites. ✔
  • Whether the inventory is writable. ✔
  • Whether the user installing has administrator privileges (Windows only). ✔
  • Whether there is 1 GB of temp space available. ✔
  • Basic pre-installation checks for Oracle WebLogic Server. ✔


Let's start the installation.

Go to the location where you unzipped the files. Locate the 'installTool.cmd'.

Right click on it and 'Run as administrator', as shown below:

First, you'll be given the language selection screen:

Next the prerequisite checklist will be presented:

Next is the installation destination. Specify the destination for the installation location, or browse to a location and select it, and then click or select Next. The default location is Oracle/Middleware.
The destination you specify becomes the Middleware home. By default EPM System Installer creates a default EPM Oracle home under the Middleware home. The default location is Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1.

The destination path cannot contain spaces; for example, C:\Program Files is not acceptable (unless you use short path notation).

Next you have to choose the installation type:

Choose from the following installation types:
  • New installation
    • Choose this option if you are installing an Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System product for the first time on this computer.
    • Choose this option if you want to install additional components that you did not initially install.
  • Re-install this release
    • Choose this option if you already installed this version of this EPM System product and want to reinstall it, for example if you need to repair an existing installation.
    • If you are reinstalling EPM System products, you must first stop all EPM System services.
  • Apply Update
    • Choose this option to apply an update from Release 11.2.0 or 11.2.1 to Release 11.2.2.

Next is products selection:
Select the products and product components to install, and then click or select Next.
I selected all the components.

Foundation:

Essbase:

Financial Reporting:
Please note: When you select Financial Reporting, automatically Financial Management SDK is selected.

Financial Close Management, Tax Management:

Financial Management, FDMEE & Profitability and Cost Management:

Next is the confirmation screen:
Review the summary of products to be installed. If necessary, click or select Back and make corrections. Click or select Next to begin the installation.


Click Next to start the installation. To cancel the installation, click or select Cancel.

Please Note: When you click or select Cancel, EPM System Installer waits until the current assembly completes installing and then stops. It does not undo installations for assemblies that were already installed. Use EPM System Uninstaller to remove assemblies that were installed.

Next is the summary page:
Review the installation summary, and then click or select Configure to launch EPM System Configurator or click or select Finish to close EPM System Installer.



That completes the installation.

Installation logs can be found at:

My first FDMEE data load in EPM 11.2.2

Image
Oracle Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management Enterprise Edition ( FDMEE ) is a data integration tool that helps transform data and metadata from a variety of sources into a consumable format for Hyperion products like Planning, HFM and Essbase. In earlier versions, Oracle EPM included: Classic FDM (Financial Data Quality Management): A general data integration tool to integrate from various sources to EPM apps. ERPi (Enterprise Resource Planning Integrator): Another data integration tool that is designed directly for integrating data and metadata from ERP system (eBS, PPsoft, SAP,etc.) to EPM app using ODI. Starting from Oracle EPM 11.1.2.3, classic FDM and ERPi combined into a single product called FDMEE. It includes both classic FDM and ERPi Functions. Uses classic FDM interface and ODI is running behind the scenes. 🔎  Please note: In FDMEE, import scripts support Jython only. VB mapping scripts are not supported anymore so you will have to re-write them as Jython or ...

Multi-Column numeric data load in FDMEE 11.2.2

Image
In my last blog , I showed how to load multi period data - but in a single numeric column. In this blog, I will cover loading a multi-column numeric data file. Here's my source file (make sure it's in '.csv' format if you're using MS Excel): I'm using an excel data file with multiple columns of numeric data to a period as a column header.  Note: The Excel file may or may not contain a header. Let's get started. In the last blog, I already registered the target application ('POC') and created a source system ('File'). So let's head over to the Import Format section. I will create a new import format. File Type : I have chosen 'Multi Column - Numeric Data' because I have multiple columns of numeric data. Save it. Now let's update the mappings. In the source file, we have the following dimensions: However, we DO NOT load/map Scenario, Period and Year in our import format. Those are taken care in category and period mapping. As p...

What's new with EPM 11.2?

❤  Extended support First, the announcement that Premier Support for Hyperion 11.1.2.4 has been extended through December, 2021. This replaces Extended Support, therefore no Extended Support will be offered. Refer  Oracle Hyperion EPM System Release 11.1.2.x - Lifetime Support Extended  ( Doc ID 2251273.1 ). 🎅  What's new? With the exciting news of Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) 11.2.2 being available, here is whats new in EPM 11.2 (till EPM 11.2.2). This is not an exhaustive list with granular details, but I've tried to cover all the significant areas. The Repository Creation Utility (RCU) is used to create schemas to support Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Java web applications. This is a mandatory step in the configuration process. For the creation of data sources, WebLogic is now also dependent on the RCU. The whole Reporting and Analysis Framework (RAF) stack which includes the RAF agent has been removed and partially implemented i...
