Planning

Effective preparation and planning make deployment and upgrades go more quickly and smoothly. To prepare for deployment, review the preinstallation requirements and familiarize yourself with the product components and architecture. Then, review the planning decisions that are covered in the deployment section. To prepare for upgrade, review the requirements and other information in the upgrade section.
