Preparing for Backup

Complete these tasks before starting a cold backup:

  • Stop products and ensure that all users have logged off.

  • Stop all related services. See "Starting and Stopping EPM System Products" in the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.

  • Back up the Oracle Hyperion Foundation Services database.

Note:

You can also perform hot backups on Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System products, with some limitations for individual products as described later in this document. These backups must be performed at the same time.
