BEA SALT GUI-Mode Installation

The following sections describe how to install BEA SALT using graphical user interface (GUI) mode installation on both Windows and UNIX systems:

 


What Is GUI-Mode Installation

GUI- mode installation is a graphics-based method for executing the BEA SALT installation program. It can run on both Windows and UNIX systems.

To run GUI-mode installation, the computer console on which you are installing the software must support a Java-based GUI. All Windows system consoles support Java-based GUIs, but not all UNIX system consoles do.

Note: To install BEA SALT on a non-graphical UNIX system console, see BEA SALT Console-Mode Installation.
