Reference or Additional Steps

1.
Verify that the computer intended for SCT software is running one of the following supported operating systems:
  • Windows® 11 Pro and Windows® 11 Enterprise versions 22H2, 21H2 (64-bit) General Availability Channel (GAC)
  • Windows® 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise Editions versions 21H2, 22H2 (64-bit).
  • Windows® Server® 2022 (64-bit)
  • Windows® Server® 2019 (version 1809 or later) (64-bit)
Also 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.

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

On the start screen, click Server Manager. Select Add roles and features. The Add Roles and Features Wizard opens. Follow the wizard until you reach the Features section. 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.

5.

Install a supported version of SQL Server software on a server class machine, including the recommended cumulative update, if any. The SCT setup installs SQL Server 2019 Express with CU18 on a non-server box if no SQL is present.

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

6.

If you want the Metasys SCT to use trusted certificates instead of self-signed certificates (the default), configure the certificates on the Metasys SCT before installing the software. Otherwise, go to the next step.

See Appendix: Certificate management and security.
7.

Install and license SCT 16.0 software.

Refer to the SCT Installation and Upgrade Instructions (LIT-12012067) .

8.

Start Launcher and add a profile for Metasys SCT.

Refer to Launcher Help (LIT-12011742) .

9.

Start Metasys SCT from Launcher. If you will be installing Metasys Advanced Reporting, create a new archive that you can later select in the Reporting tab of the Metasys Server setup window.

Refer to the SCT Installation and Upgrade Instructions (LIT-12012067) .

10.

Go to the next section to install the database server of the split ADX.

Go to Database Server.
