EPM 11.2: Downloads, Verification and Unzipping

So Oracle Hyperion EPM 11.2 has been released! For more information on that read here:
https://blogs.oracle.com/proactivesupportepm/epm_112

To download the files needed for the release you need to head over to Oracle eDelivery: https://edelivery.oracle.com

I should say that I think eDelivery is pretty flawed. If you select all the products you use you will get a huge list of downloads, with lots of duplicates and some probably unnecessary. You can use the wget shell script to get all of the downloads, de-duplicated, and there is also a download manager for Windows. But how do we know that we have all of the downloads we need - and that they are not corrupt?

In the eDelivery interface there is a "view digest" link that will show you the SHA1 and SHA256 hashes for each download - this is what we will use to verify our downloads. I will be using Windows for these steps. The table below lists each ZIP file with the corresponding description and SHA1 hash. You can use the download manager to ensure each ZIP is downloaded, then use sha1sum.exe from the ancient but still useful UnxUtils (UnxUpdates.zip file has it) to check all the hashes with:

sha1sum *.zip

The results from sha1sum should look like the below:

Please note that in terms of what most people would actually need to download I would say everything from V984488-01.zip to V984542-01.zip and everything else you can get as and when you need it.

So now we need to extract all the ZIP files with their correct paths. For this I would recommend using 7za.exe - you can get it from the 7za920.zip 7-Zip package on SourceForge. 7za is a command-line program for zipping and unzipping multiple different types of archive. We can use the "-o" switch to 7za to set the folder we want to extract to - this is important to ensure that the documentation, client installers and DRM/DRMA components go into their own folders. So move the ZIP files mentioned above into your destination folder, make sure 7za.exe is in the PATH and run the following commands:

7za x -y -oClient_Installers V984488-01.zip
7za x -y -oDRM V984490-01.zip
7za x -y V984500-01.zip
7za x -y V984501-01.zip
7za x -y V984502-01.zip
7za x -y V984503-01.zip
7za x -y V984508-01.zip
7za x -y V984509-01.zip
7za x -y V984510-01.zip
7za x -y -oDRM V984513-01.zip
7za x -y -oDocumentation V984542-01.zip

Now we should have our installation package set up and ready to use! In the next blog post I will go over actually creating the EPM 11.2 installation.
