•On your server, create a directory where the compressed files are going to be stored: (i.e. [Drive]:\EPM11R2_ZIPS )
•Download the files to the designated target directory.

What am I going to do with all the compressed files?

•Uncompress all the files, starting with the Installer, to a directory whose name does not contain any spaces.You could create a directory at the root level (i.e. C:\EPM11R2_Installer )
•When done, ensure that the "assemblies" directory is populated with the files you uncompressed.
How do I run the installer?

•To run the installer, go to the installer directory ( i.e. C:\EPM11R2_Installer ) and run the following command: installTool.cmd, this will start a console that will launch the Oracle Universal Installer.

What do I select during the installation?

•After you pass the initial panels, you can select the New Installation and the radio button "Chose components individually" This will give you the ability to select the components by product instead of by tier.
•For Essbase, check all the options that you would like to install.
•Continue with the installation
What do I need to configure after the installation?

•You need to configure Shared Services (Foundation, EPMA and Calc Manager) and the Essbase products that you installed.
•Ensure that you have the Relational Database information ready before you start the configuration phase.
How can I test if Essbase is working?

•You could connect to the Essbase server via EAS, ESSCMD or MaxL to ensure that is fully operational.
•You could also check the Essbase.log and ensure that the correct initialization took place.
