System Administrator’s Guide to Installing DataMgr

Install DataMgr

If the various components are going to be installed on different machines, the installation sequence is as follows:

•SLD.

Note

The SLD component should be installed ﬁrst and must be running when the DMFS is installed. This only applies if the two components are located on different machines.

•BFS.

•SSD.

•DMFS.

ADIC recommends that each component be started before the next component is installed. This will ensure that each component can talk to the others correctly.

Caution

The installation script inserts entries into various system ﬁles. These entries are encapsulated between special tags. A typical tag will appear like %CDVSTART_dmfs%. Do not alter or remove these tag lines.

From each machine listed in “Complete Table” on Page 1-17 ,perform the installations steps below:

Caution

If you are upgrading DataMgr, make sure you have a successful current backup of your BFS Database.
