You can install the latest releases of products directly from the Software AG Empower Product Support website, or you can download them into an installation image according to the operating system needed and then install some or all products on one or more machines. Also, you can record an installation script and then install the products with no user input.

The JRE used to run the installer is included to start the Software AG Installer on Windows and Mac OS X systems. On all other UNIX and Linux systems, you must install a JRE to run the installer.

For detailed information about the installation methods and supported JDKs, see the Using the Software AG Installer guide.

If the vendor for your operating system recommends installing the latest service packs, patch-bundles, and fixes, Software AG encourages you to follow that recommendation. If you experience problems with installed service packs, patch-bundles, or fixes, report those problems directly to the vendor.

If you are going to install on an HP-UX 11i v3 system, set the variable USE_J2D_FONTCONFIG to no. In a Bourne or Bash shell, run the command export USE_J2D_FONTCONFIG=no.

The Integration Server ability to handle traffic is constrained by the number of file descriptors available to the Integration Server process. On most systems, 64 file descriptors are available to each process by default. If you are going to install Integration Server on a UNIX or Mac system, Software AG recommends that you ask your system administrator to increase the number of file descriptors available to the Integration Server process to at least 1024.
