Adding a Standalone Server

In order for users to use any standalone Essbase Server, you need to add the standalone server to Provider Services through Administration Services Console. Before adding the standalone server to Provider Services, the Essbase Server should already be added to the User Properties window in Administration Services Console.

  To add a standalone server:

  1. From Enterprise View or a custom view, select the Essbase Servers node.

  2. Right-click and select Add Essbase Server. In the Add Essbase Server dialog box, enter the Essbase Server name, user name, password, and confirm password, then click OK.

  3. Repeat Step 2 to add additional Essbase Servers.

  4. From Enterprise View or a custom view, select a provider under the Provider Services node.

  5. Right-click and select Create, then Create Standalone Server.

  6. In Add Standalone Server, select an Essbase Server from the list containing the Essbase Servers added in Step 2.

  7. Click OK.

    The name of the standalone Essbase Server is displayed under the Standalone Server node.

Note:

Alternatively, if you have existing standalone servers added, you can select the Standalone Server node under a provider's name, right-click and select Create Standalone Server.
