Installing Adabas Manager

This installation documentation provides just a brief description on how to install Adabas Manager directly on the target machine using the Software AG Installer GUI. For detailed information on the Software AG Installer, see the Software AG Installer guide.

Important
Make sure all ports you specify on panels or in response to prompts are not already being used by other products on your machine. For a list of default ports used by Software GmbH products, see "List of Used TCP/IP Ports" in Empower (go to Products & Documentation > Download Components > TCP/IP Ports).

  1. Start the Software AG Installer GUI as described in the Software AG Installer guide.

  2. When the first page of the Software AG Installer GUI (the so-called Welcome panel) is shown, choose the Next button repeatedly (and specify all required information on the shown panels as described in the Software AG Installer guide) until the panel containing the product selection tree appears. This tree lists the products you have licensed and which can be installed on the operating system of the machine on which you are installing.
