How to: |
When you install, several server properties are configured automatically. After installation, you can configure additional properties using the Web Console. The DMC Client also has properties that can be adjusted post install.
setup.exe
A User Access Control (UAC) security prompt may appear. Respond yes.
The Choose Setup Language window opens.
If you have no prior 7.7 installation, the Setup/License Agreement window. opens:
Skip to Step 6
If you have at least one prior 7.7 installation, one of the following two windows opens:
(If your existing 7.7 installation is a client, this option installs and configures your first instance, not an additional one.)
The Software License Agreement window opens. Continue with Step 6.
The installation begins without prompting you for parameters.
When installation is finished, the Setup Complete window opens.
For a server, select Start Server Workspace and Web Console and click Finish to exit the setup program. Continue with Verifying Installation.
For a client, see the DataMigrator User's Guide.
The Software Registration window opens. Skip to Step 7.
You will get new server software (or new client software, if you selected a client directory). It will retain the existing configuration information.
The refresh begins without prompting you for parameters.
When the refresh is finished, the Setup Complete window opens.
For a server, select Start Server Workspace and Web Console and click Finish to exit the setup program. Continue with Verifying Installation.
For client, see the DataMigrator User's Guide.
The Software Registration window opens.
The license key is printed on a form included with the software and should be saved for future reference. You must include the hyphens.
The License Key determines which product you are installing, such as a Full-Function Server, a WebFOCUS Reporting Server, a DataMigrator Server, or a DMC Client. Default settings, such as folder names, are determined by the license key. The screens that follow are an example for a Full-Function Server (others will be similar).
Click OK to correct the key.
For more information, see Limiting CPU/Core Use on Machines With Multiple CPUs and Cores.
The next window varies depending on whether there is a 7.7 release currently installed on the computer.
The type of server or client you are installing determines the program folder default name. You can change the name and the location, plus you can indicate that you want to further customize specific directories.
Skip to Step 11.
This will install a new software instance in a new installation directory (EDAHOME) and enable you to specify new configuration information in a new configuration directory (EDACONF).
This will use the existing software in your current installation directory (EDAHOME), and enable you to specify new configuration information in a new configuration directory (EDACONF).
This option enables you to run multiple instances, but requires space for just a single set of the software. It also makes maintenance easier, because if you apply upgrades to the install, you need to do so in only one location.
The Select Program Folder window opens:
The type of instance you are configuring determines the program folder default name. You can change the name and the location, plus you can indicate that you want to further customize specific directories.
Each program folder name must be unique. If you need to distinguish between multiple instances and want to use the default name, add a suffix (for example, WebFOCUS 77 Server 2).
*\ibi\srv77*\home*
If you are installing new, accept the default directory, or specify a different directory. The new software will be placed in this directory.
If you are configuring an additional instance, using your existing software, accept the default EDAHOME directory. If several 7.7 installation directories exist, select the one that corresponds to the software home directory for which you are configuring a new instance.
If you changed the EDAHOME value, the default EDACONF value changes to conform to EDAHOME.
EDACONF must be in the same srv77 path as EDAHOME. The lowest-level EDAHOME directory (home) becomes the product type directory in EDACONF. For example, if EDAHOME is
ibi\srv77\home
then EDACONF for a WebFOCUS Reporting Server defaults to:
ibi\srv77\wfs
Each instance must have its own configuration directory. If you are configuring an additional instance, be sure to append characters to the default name of the directory. (Otherwise, the installation will overwrite the existing configuration directory.) For example:
ibi\srv77\wfs2
Accept the default value, or click Browse, or type a name to specify a different directory.
Accept the default value, or click Browse to select a different directory.
Accept the default value, or click Browse to select a different directory.
The Configure Basic Information window opens.
If you are configuring multiple instances, be sure to specify a different range of ports for each instance.
The default port automatically varies by product to support multiple instances on a particular computer:
For a Full-Function Server, 8101 is the default value, which reserves ports 8101-8103.
For a WebFOCUS Reporting Server, 8121 is the default value, which reserves ports 8121-8123.
For a DataMigrator Server, 8117 is the default value, which reserves ports 8117-8119.
For a Shared Application Server (for WebFOCUS Maintain), 8113 is the default, which reserves ports 8113-8115.
If you are configuring multiple instances, be sure to specify a different port for each instance.
The default port varies by product to support multiple servers on a particular computer:
For a Full-Function Server, 8100 is the default value.
For a WebFOCUS Reporting Server, 8120 is the default value.
For a DataMigrator Server, 8116 is the default value.
For a Shared Application Server (for WebFOCUS Maintain), 8112 is the default.
A final install/configure confirmation screen appears. You may go back to make corrections or proceed.
The setup program installs software and configures using the information you specified. The setup program creates a program group to receive the program icons for the product. The name of this group is based upon the product that was installed.
When the installation completes, the Setup Complete window opens.
You can now verify your installation, as described in Verifying Installation.
