Installing Replication Server

Use one of the following methods to download Replication Server software.

After following the download instructions from the SPDC Web site in the section “Accessing products from the SPDC Web site”, go to the location where you extracted the Replication Server 15.0 for Sun Solaris installation image, or

Insert the Replication Server CD in your CD drive.
Launch the installation program by executing the setup routine for Solaris:
```
./setup
```
If you see an error message saying that there is not enough temporary disk space, add the following to your setup command:
```
./setup –is:tempdir someDirectory
```
Here, someDirectory is a directory with at least 100MB of disk space that the installation program can use.
On the Welcome window, click Next.
Select a geographic location that displays the license agreement. Select I agree and click Next.
Enter the directory where you want to install Replication Server:
- If the directory does not exist, the installation program prompts you to create it. Click Yes.
- If the destination directory exists, you receive a warning message that you are installing into an existing directory. Click Yes.
Select Typical for the installation setup type and click Next.
The installation program displays a summary of what is to be installed. Click Next.
The installation program starts to install Replication Server, displaying the progress status. You may see the following message,
```
There are newer files already installed and do you want to replace them?
```
Click No to All.
When you receive a message indicating that Replication Server software has successfully installed, click Next.

This procedure uses the SAMPLE_RS Replication Server.
The SySAM License Server window opens and displays this prompt:
```
Will licenses be obtained from the License Server?
```
Respond based on how you set up your environment and use the license obtained from the Software Product Download (SPDC) Web site for Replication Server.

Click Next.
The SySAM notification window prompts you to configure your server for e-mail notification.
