Installing Products Using the Software AG Installer or Command Central
You can install products using different methods. The methods can involve Software AG Installer, Command Central, and Platform Manager. Platform Manager is the agent that enables Command Central to install, administer, and manage your products.
You always use the
Command Central bootstrapper to install
Command Central.
You can install Deployer and Asset Build Environment (ABE) in the same installation directory as Command Central. However, do not install any other Software AG products in Command Central installation directory.
You can use the
Software AG Installer to install all products. The installer automatically installs
Platform Manager with the products. For instructions, see
Using the Software AG Installer and this guide.
You can use
Command Central to install most products. You use
Command Central or the
Command Central bootstrapper to install
Platform Manager in the directories that will contain your products, depending on whether or not
Command Central can access the product installation host machine remotely. You then use
Command Central to install your products remotely. For instructions and the list of products that
Command Central can install, see the
Software AG Command Central Help.
If you install products using Software AG Installer, you can uninstall them using Command Central, and vice versa. In other words, you can use a different tool to uninstall than you used to install.
