1.
Install the Integration Server.
For instructions, see Installing Software AG Products.
Note:
You can install the Integration Server as either a Windows application or a Windows service. After installation, if you want, you can switch from a Windows application to a Window service, or vice versa. For instructions, see Running Integration Server as a Windows Application vs. a Windows Service.
2.
Change default passwords.
Use the Integration Server Administrator to assign new passwords to the following user accounts:
*The "Administrator" user account.
*The "Developer" user account.
*The "Central" user account.
*The "Replicator" user account.
For instructions on how to change passwords, refer to Adding an Administrator User.
Use the Integration Server Administrator to assign a new master password for the Integration Server to use when encrypting outbound passwords before storing them. For instructions on changing the master password, refer to Changing the Master Password.
3.
Determine a strategy for outbound passwords and the master password.
Before you launch and configure your Integration Server the first time, determine how you want the Integration Server to handle the outbound passwords and master password with respect to where they are stored, how they are encrypted, and how often they must be changed. If you change these settings after the Integration Server has been configured, the master password and outbound passwords can become out of sync. See Configuring Integration Server for Secure Communication for more information.
4.
Determine whether to use a JDK or JRE and specify the Java location.
If you intend to use Designer and/or Developer to develop and compile Java services on Integration Server, specify the location of the JDK. If you will not be using this installation of Integration Server to compile Java services, you can specify the location of a JRE or a JDK. For information about specifying the Java location, see Passing Java System Properties to Integration Server .
