This tutorial covers a first-time lifecycle management (LCM) migration for Financial Management classic applications or for Financial Management applications that are created in Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Architect (Performance Management Architect). This LCM migration utilizes Hyperion Shared Services 11.1.2.
Approximately 2 hours.
In this tutorial, you perform a first-time lifecycle management migration with a Financial Management 11.1.2 application and with Shared Services 11.1.2 from a source environment to a destination environment.
The Financial Management application consists of artifacts from various products. For example:
Because the artifacts for Financial Management applications span multiple products, you must migrate the artifacts from each product as it relates to the Financial Management application.
You are tasked with a first-time migration for Financial Management 11.1.2 application from a source environment to a destination environment. The 11.1.2 release is installed and configured on the source and destination environments, which utilize separate Shared Services 11.1.2 instances. Consequently, the file system will be utilized for this migration.
Before starting this tutorial, you should:
1. |
Install and configure Financial Management 11.1.2 and all related Performance Management Architect 11.1.2 products in the source and destination environments (Hyperion Shared Services, Performance Management Architect, Oracle Hyperion Financial Reporting, Fusion Edition and so on). |
---|---|
2. |
Ensure that the source environment contains the Financial Management application with all metadata. |
3 . |
Ensure that the source and destination user who is performing the LCM activities is provisioned with the following roles:
|

The artifacts for the source environment application that exist on the file system must be moved to the destination environment file system. You can accomplish this task by copying and pasting the artifacts, sending them through FTP, or burning them to a DVD.
The default file system location for the Life Cycle Management artifacts is on the Shared Services Web application server at c:\oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\common\import_export.
The artifacts must also be copied into the user directory within this file system location.
In this example, you copy and paste the artifacts within Windows Explorer.
1. |
In the source environment, navigate to Windows Explorer on the file system.
|
---|---|
2. |
Select Tools > Map Network Drive. |
3. |
Enter the parameters for the destination environment file system location, and clickFinish.
|
4. |
Navigate to the artifacts for the source environment application. Select the folders, right-click, and selectCopy.
|
5. |
Navigate to the newly mapped destination location, right-click, and select Paste.
|
6. |
The database artifact folders now reside in the destination server file system location.
