Version 7.6.3
 —  Installing Adabas Manager  —

The Adabas Manager Environment

Before you install Adabas Manager, be sure your system meets the requirements described in the previous section Prerequisites.

The System Management Hub (SMH) and the Software AG Directory Server are commonly installed with Software AG open system products. If they are already installed at your site, you should not need to install them again.

Important:
Adabas Manager 7.6.3 requires System Management Hub (SMH) version 4.1.1.314 or higher.
To improve System Management Hub performance, Software AG recommends to disable script scanning for the web browser session used for System Management Hub. For details on the risks and benefits of disabled script scanning, see the information in Software AG's ServLine24.

Entire Net-Work Client is provided to ensure that you can use the Simple Connection Line Driver, even if you do not have Entire Net-Work 7 (or higher) on open systems installed. It also provides you with access to the Software AG Directory Server and SMH required for Simple Connection Line Driver and Entire Net-Work e-business Clients.

If Entire Net-Work is not already running on your system, install Entire Net-Work Administration as described in the Entire Net-Work Administration documentation.

On the client side, install Entire Net-Work Client as described in Entire Net-Work Client Administration in the Entire Net-Work Administration documentation.

Note:
If you install Adabas Manager under UNIX, the system will check during the installation process if Entire Net-Work Client is available on your system and will install it if it is not found.

Once you have installed the Entire Net-Work Client components, you must manually set up Directory Server target entries in the System Management Hub to support the Simple Connection Line Driver. Specifically, one XTSaccess (access) target entry must be created in the Directory Server for each open systems Adabas database you want to access using the Simple Connection Line Driver. For information on how to do this, see the section Required Post-Installation Updates for Simple Connection Line Driver Support in the Entire Net-Work Client Administration documentation.

Note:
We recommend that you use only one Directory Server for all Software AG products that require it.
