Installing or Upgrading WDM Enterprise Edition 19
Detailed Custom Installation and Upgrade Instructions
Whether you are performing a Custom installation or upgrade on a single server or
multiple servers, you must install or upgrade the WDM components in the following order:
1. WDM Database (Database) - There can be only one instance of this WDM Database in
your WDM environment.
2. Software Repository (Repository) - You can have one Master Repository and multiple
remote repositories in your WDM environment.
3. Web Services (HServer) - It is recommended to have as many instances of this Web
Services as you have repository instances in your WDM environment.
4. Standard Services - There can be only one instance of this Standard Services in your
WDM environment.
5. Administrator Console (MMC Snap-in) - You can have multiple instances of this
Administrator Console in your WDM environment.
Depending on your installation selections, the installation wizard will automatically guide
you through the specific process you need. When installing or upgrading each component
grouping you want on a server, use the following tips (although upgrades do not show
installation wizard screens, you can still use the information contained in these sections):
• "WDM Database Installation Tips You Need to Know"
• "Software Repository Installation Tips You Need to Know"
• "Administrator Console Installation Tips You Need to Know"
Tip
If you are installing or upgrading WDM components on multiple machines
(requires repeating the installation wizard for each component grouping you
want), be sure to select the correct components for the server on which you
are installing or upgrading components. For example, you can use the
InstallShield Wizard to install the WDM Database on one server, and then
use the InstallShield Wizard to install the other components on a second
server. Your WDM Enterprise Sales Key allows the WDM components to be
separately installed on different servers.
Caution
(Installations on Windows Server 2008 Only) - During the installation, if you
are prompted to download and install the WebDAV Extension for IIS 7.0,
simply follow the instructions (see also "Installing WebDAV Extension for IIS
7.0").
