Creating an ESSBASE.CFG Client File

Overview Creating a Server File Creating a Client File Settings List

If you want to customize Hyperion Essbase network settings, create a file on the client called ESSBASE.CFG. Settings specified in ESSBASE.CFG override Hyperion Essbase defaults.

Only the settings listed in this section can be used in an ESSBASE.CFG client file.

To create a client ESSBASE.CFG file:

• Create the file in ASCII format with any text editor, such as Windows Notepad.
• Enter each setting on a separate line in the file. You do not need to end each line with a semicolon.
• Name the file ESSBASE.CFG (essbase.cfg on UNIX platforms).
• Save the file in the ARBORPATH \BIN directory, and include one setting on each line.

NETRETRYCOUNT 100
NETDELAY 300

The settings available in a client-level ESSBASE.CFG file are:

• NETDELAY
  
• NETNPCONNECTTIMEOUT
  
• NETRETRYCOUNT
