Installing Data Protection for Exchange Server on a local system
You can install Data Protection for Exchange Server from a DVD. The setup wizard guides you through the process of installing Data Protection for Exchange Server.
Before you begin
You can obtain the installation package from the product
DVD or from an IBM® download
site.
- If you obtain the package from the product DVD, ensure that the installation files are visible on the DVD drive.
- If you obtain the package from an IBM download site, you must extract the installation files.
About this task
Data Protection for Exchange Server is available in both licensed and maintenance packages. The installation process differs between these two package types.
- Licensed package
- Includes a license enablement file that is only available from your software distribution channel, such as Passport Advantage®, and includes the initial General Availability release of a product or component.
- Maintenance update (fix pack or interim fix package)
- Available from the maintenance delivery channel, and can sometimes be used to refresh the
software distribution channel. Maintenance packages do not contain license enablement files and must
be installed after a licensed package.
For information about how to install a fix pack or interim fix package, see the README.FTP file. The README.FTP file is available in the same directory where the maintenance package is downloaded.
Procedure
Install Data Protection for Exchange Server by
using the setup wizard. The wizard installs the product
and any prerequisites such as the .NET Framework and Report Viewer.
