Installing or Upgrading Exchange CS

This section describes the following steps that ensure successful installation:

  1. Verify that you have completed the pre-installation procedures. For details, see Completing Pre-Installation Steps.
  2. Install product files on the remote server host. For details, see Installing or Upgrading Product Files.

 


Installing or Upgrading Product Files

AquaLogic Interaction Content Service - Microsoft Exchange is implemented as a remote server in the context of the portal deployment. You install the product on a remote server host computer that can communicate with the portal. Except in the case of a development or test environment, the remote server host computer should not host the AquaLogic Interaction portal application. For host specifications, see Hardware and Software Requirements.

Note: If you have previously installed Exchange CS, we recommend uninstalling the earlier files before installing the current version.

To install product files:

  1. Log in to the host computer as the local host administrator.
  2. Close all applications.
  3. Copy the installation package (ALIContentService-Exchange_v5-2.exe) to a location on the remote server host.
  4. Launch the installer by double-clicking ALIContentService-Exchange_v5-2.exe.
  5. In the Location to Save Files dialog box, accept the default folder. These files are copied to your computer temporarily for the installation and will be removed when you complete installation.
  6. Complete the installation wizard pages as described in the following table.
Note: To facilitate any troubleshooting that might be required, as well as communication among IT staff and customer support, we recommend that you keep the default settings.
