MicroStrategy ONE

Install the MDX Cube Provider and the Essbase Client

Begin the Oracle Essbase connection process with the following installations:

  1. Install the MicroStrategy MDX Cube Provider on a machine. For information on how to install this component, which is provided with MicroStrategy, see the Installation and Configuration Help.

  2. Install the Essbase client, including the Essbase C API, on the machine where you installed MicroStrategy and the MicroStrategy MDX Cube Provider. For 32-bit operating systems, install the 32-bit Essbase client, and for 64-bit operating systems, install the 64-bit Essbase client.

    For information on how to install the Essbase client libraries, refer to your third-party Oracle documentation.

    Using Essbase version 11.1.2.2 can cause connection issues. To avoid this, upgrade Essbase Analytical Provider Services to version 11.1.2.4 to support integration with the MicroStrategy MDX Cube Provider.

Upon completing the installations, see Configure the Essbase Client and the MDX Cube Provider for next steps.
