STA Installation Best Practices
Follow STA installation guidelines to ensure STA installs on the server.
- Use the latest version of STA
-
For best system performance and the most robust analytics and reporting, always upgrade to the latest version of STA. See Install STA.
- Register the Oracle central inventory
-
Beginning with STA 2.1.0, the STA installer uses the Oracle central inventory location, which is a convention common to many Oracle products. After completing STA installation, you should register the Oracle central inventory location on the STA server by running the provided registration script. Registering the location will facilitate the installation of future STA upgrades. See Register the Oracle Central Inventory Location.
- Do not run browsers on the STA server
-
For optimal STA server performance, you should not run a browser on the STA server to access the STA user interface or for any other purpose. Run browsers on platforms separate from the STA server. See Ensure Local Browser Functionality (optional).
