Reference or Additional Steps

1.
Verify that the computer intended for Metasys Server software is running one of the following supported Windows Server operating systems:
  • Windows® Server® 2019 (version 1809 or later) (64-bit)
  • Windows® Server® 2016 (version 1607 or later) (64-bit)
Ensure you run Windows Update to verify the operating system is up to date.

Open a command prompt window and run the command Winver as Administrator. The Windows version is listed in the dialog box that appears. Start Windows Update from the Search box and apply all required and recommended updates before installing any Metasys software.

2.

Configure the Windows Firewall to ensure the ports that Metasys software requires are open.

See Configuring the Windows Defender firewall.

3.
Follow the appropriate step:
  • If you are installing the Metasys Server software on an English language computer, skip to the next step.
  • If you are installing the Metasys Server software on a non-English language computer, you need to set the computer's regional settings and the default language used by the SQL Server database to the same locale as the site default language.

Consult the Microsoft documentation and see Installing Metasys server for a non-English locale.

4.

If the computer has multiple network cards, configure the network card that the Metasys Server software is to use.

See Configuring Additional Network Cards.

5.

Install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 if the computer does not have this software feature installed.

In Control Panel, click Programs > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on and off. Click the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 or .NET Framework 3.5 feature. Check the HTTP Activation component. If you do not have Internet access, insert the operating system media, open a Command prompt with Run as Administrator, and execute this command (where <drive> is the disk drive with the media): Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:<drive>:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess.

On server-class OSs, use the Add Roles and Features Wizard in Server Manager to add the .NET Framework 3.5 Features and HTTP Activation components. On some server-class OSs, HTTP Activation may be listed under WCF Services.
6.

Install a supported version of SQL Server Standard or Enterprise software, including the recommended cumulative update, if any. Select the Database Engine Services and Management Tools components.

Refer to SQL Server Installation and Upgrade Instructions (LIT-12012240).

7.
(Optional) Install the Metasys Database Manager.
Note: Metasys Database Manager is not FIPS compliant.

Refer to the Metasys Database Manager Installation Guide (LIT-12011553) .

8.

If prompted, restart the computer.

Use the standard procedure to restart the operating system.

9.

Go to the next section to install the web/application server of the split ADX.

Go to Web/Application Server.
