The next step is to create relational databases or repositories for
Shared Services
EAS
Planning System tables
Planning Database
I used sql server 2005 to create above repositories.
After creating sql server repositeries, go to the server where you installed shared services and open Hyperion configuration utility from the start menu. we have to configure shared services first and then EAS and then planning.



















The next step is to configure EAS. Open the foundation services on the server where you installed EAS and follow the procedure below:

  10. Hi Mahesh,
    good morning.
    I am assuming that you are asking who is logged into planning application.
    you can check for this information in planning web application (front end)
    and look in view statistics.
    hope this helps.

  12. Hi Prabhu,
    i passed through the same error, when i was installing the planning.
    what you need to do is to have mixed mode authentication for the sql repository, which you careate and also be careful with user name and password when you enter your repository information in your confi utility.
    if you have same error i can walk you through.
    you can reach me at ppasup123@gmail.com

    with best wishes,
    Dornakal.

  17. Very good site with valuable information.
    1) I configured MSAD as user directory and "externalize users".
    2) In Windows Server 2003 AD added user to MSSQL group.
    3) SQL Server 2005 is "Mixed mode Authentication"
    4) I see the Windows user in SQL Server.
    5) Created databases using Windows user as dbo.
    6) In config utility, for db username and password, left it blank.
    7) When I was creating an instance for Planning, I got " System Failur: Error while retrieving xml file from database"
    Can this be due to Windows user?

    Do you have to use SQL Server authentication to create databases?

    Thanks,
    Devang

  18. Dears,
    I have a problem to run the workspace after installing and configuring the application.
    I'm sure that all services are up and running.
    I'm using the following URL to connect to the workspace :
    http://localhost:19000/workspace/index.jsp
    is it a correct URL or should I use another one.
    please help
