FDM Load balancer Configuration issue

Question

We are doing the installation for Hyperion Planning, ODI and DRM on DEV environment
The EPM version we are using - 11.1.2.2
Server 1 (Windows 2008 x64)
Foundation Services

Analytical Provider Services
Essbase Administration Services web application
Oracle HTTP Server

Essbase Integration Services
Essbase Studio
IIS 7.x
Server 4 (Windows 2008 x64)
Essbase Server
Server 5(Windows 2008 x64)
SQL Server 2008
All our services are running fine for Planning. We are in process of configuring FDM.
FDM Application Server Configuration is completed.
While doing FDM Load Balancer Configuration, we also able to connect to Shared Service directory successfully. But when we click ok to complete the configuration it gives following error -
Unable to Create Load Balancer Object!
Please verify that the user name, password, and domain are correct
Error=Cannot create ActiveX component
When checked in Event Log we found -
Unable to create Load Balance Manager object! Configuration directory could not be located. Error=-2147023878 - Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID *{E652643D-6CC1-48AC-915D-01842B04F292}*
Source=TaskManagerService - at TaskManagerService.TaskItem.fGetConfigFolder()
We tried the below steps but issue still persists -
•     Start the ‘dcomcnfg’ tool in Windows
•     Expand Component Services\Computers\My Computer\Dcom-Config and locate the following object: {E652643D-6CC1-48AC-915D-01842B04F292}
•     Right-click and choose "Properties" and click on the "Security" tab
•     Click the "Edit" button and remove all users except the default: "Everyone" and "System" and click OK, then set the radio button to "Use Default"
•     Click the "Edit" button under Access Permissions and remove all users/groups except the default items and click OK, and set the radio button to "Use Default"
•     Now click the "Identity" tab and remove the ID in the "This User" field and set the radio button to "The Launching User" and click "Apply" and "OK"
•     Now try to launch the FDM Load Balance Config and all the extra tools for FDqM
We are using hypadmin as domain account but it is part of Administrators group on FDM Server (Server 3). The administrators group is also part of -
Act as part of the operating system
Bypass traverse checking
Log on as a batch job
Log on as a service
Please let us know in case if you encountered similar error on this version and possible solution for the issue.
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I woudl clear out all users/groups on the security tab of the FDM Load Balance Server DCOm object for "Launch and Activation" and "Access" permisisons and then set the identity to the "Launching User" radio button and apply. Then re-set the config.
If that still fails, try rebooting the server and then set it.
Make sure the domain and password are also correct that is being entered.
