Installing Replication Server

Install Replication Server using the setup program.

Prerequisites

Allocate a disk partition of at least 20MB for each Replication Server you are installing. You can add more partitions later, if necessary. Check each partition to make sure it is available and has write permissions.
Allocate the entire partition to the Replication Server. If you allocate only a portion of the partition to Replication Server, you cannot use the remainder for any other purpose.

Task

Verify that the drive on which you install the Replication Server has enough disk space for the components being installed, and at least 100MB of extra disk space for the installation program.
Insert the Replication Server media in the appropriate drive, or download and extract the Replication Server installation image from the Sybase Product Download Center (SPDC).
Launch the setup program.
Note: If the installer does not start automatically, double-click setup.exe or select Start > Run and enter the following, where x: is your CD drive:
```
x:\setup.exe
```
If there is not enough disk space in the temporary disk space directory, set the environment variable TMP to directory_name before running it again, where directory_name is the name of the temporary directory to which the installation program writes the temporary installation files. When specifying the directory_name, include its full path.
In the Introduction window, click Next.
Indicate where to install Replication Server:
- To select an installation directory, click Choose. A window appears, and from that window browse for and select the directory.
- To create a new directory, enter a new directory path.
- To restore to the default directory if you do not want to use the directory that you have entered, click Restore Default Folder.
One of these occurs:
- If the installation directory you chose does not exist, you see:
```
The directory directory name does not exist. Do you want to create it?
```
  Click Yes.
- If the installation directory you selected exists, and already contains an Replication Server installation, you see:
```
Warning: You have chosen to install into an existing
```
```
directory. If you proceed with this installation,
```
```
any older versions of the products you choose to
```
```
install that are detected in this directory will be
```
```
replaced.
```
  Click Next.
Select the type of installation:
- Typical – installs the default components. This is recommended for most users.
- Full – installs every Replication Server component, including all the supported language modules.
- Custom – lets you select the components to install. Some components are automatically installed if they are required to run your selected components.
Click Next.
Read the License and Copyright Agreement:
1. Select the geographic location from where you are installing to display the agreement for your region.
2. Select I agree to the terms of the Sybase license for the install location specified. You must agree to the license and copyright agreement before you can continue with the installation.
3. Click Next.
On the Sybase Software Asset Management License Server window, select one of:
- Specify License Keys – click Browse to select the license file. To select multiple license files, use Shift+Click or Ctrl+Click. The license pane displays the license information.
  Alternatively, copy and paste the license information directly in the license pane. Click Next.
  If you specify a served license key, the installer prompts you to install a new SySAM license server. Click one of:
  - Next – to install the new SySAM license server and follow the installation prompts.
  - Previous – and select Use previously deployed license server if you have an existing SySAM license server on the same host.
- Use Previously Deployed License Server – if you have a previously deployed license server, enter the host name of the machine where the license server is running, and the port number if the port number you are using is not default. Click Next.
- Continue installation without a license key – if you do not have licenses for any of the Replication Server components, you can select this option, and click Next to proceed. The installer allows you to install and use the Replication Server components without a license for a grace period of 30 days. To continue using these components after the end of the grace period, obtain valid licenses from the SPDC, and install these licenses using the Replication Server License Installer.
See the SySAM Users Guide.
Configuring your server for e-mail notification enables designated users to receive information about license management events requiring attention.
Provide:
- SMTP server host name
- SMTP server port number
- E-mail return address
- Recipient e-mail addresses
- Message severity that triggers e-mail messages
Click Next.
The installation summary window displays the selections you have made. Review the information, and click Install.
On the Start Sample Replication Server window, select Yes to configure and start a sample Replication Server. The installer displays the configuration information for the sample Replication Server. Write this information down.

Click Next.
If you chose to configure and start a sample Replication Server, the installer proceeds to configure and start the sample Replication Server.
Click Next when done.
When the final window appears, indicating a successful installation, click Done to exit the installer.
