Launch the setup program.
The setup program should start automatically. If it does not, select Start | Run and browse to SybaseETLServer.exe.
Select the language to use for installation. Click OK. The Welcome window displays. Click Next.
Select the product edition you want to configure.
Evaluation – allows you to install and use ETL Server without a license for a grace period of 30 days. To continue using ETL Server after the end of the grace period, you must obtain valid licenses from the SPDC. See “Obtaining licenses”.
Licensed Edition – requires you to provide a license for installation.
Read the License Agreement. Select “I accept the agreement” and click Next.
If the license agreement is unreadable on your system, you can read all available license agreements at the Local Sybase Software Licenses Web site and rerun the setup program.
The installer prompts you to close all other applications, specifically GridNode, before proceeding. Click Next.
To terminate GridNode, run the GridNode --shutdown command.
Select the installation directory. Click Next to accept the default directory, click Browse to select a different installation directory, or enter a new directory to be created. Sybase recommends that you use only alphanumeric characters in the installation path.
WARNING! Do not install ETL Server in the same installation directory as Sybase IQ.
Specify the Start Menu folder in which you want to create a program shortcut. To install in the default folder, click Next. Otherwise, click Browse to specify a new folder.
Keep “Register as Windows System Service” selected if you want to start or stop ETL Server using services.
Select “Install for All Users,” if you want to be able to launch the application on user accounts with restricted access rights.
When started the first time on a user account, all files requiring write privileges are copied to the user directory, typically at:
Windows 2003 and Windows XP – C:\Documents and Settings\<login user>\Application Data\SYBASE\ ETL Server\<product version>\Demodata.
Vista and Windows 2008 – C:\Users\<login user>\AppData\Roaming\SYBASE\ ETL Server\<product version>\Demodata
Depending on whether you have selected “Install for All Users,” log files are located in the \log subdirectory of either the user or the installation directory.
Click Next.
The installation summary window displays. Review the information, and click Install.
Once installation is complete, the installer displays a Readme file. View the contents of the file and click Next.
If you have installed the Licensed Edition, the installer prompts you to select the license method. You can select one of these options:
Use previously deployed license server – if you have a previously deployed license server, enter the license server host name of the machine where the license server is running, and the license server port number if the port number you are using is not the same as the default. Click Next.
License file – click Browse to select the location of the license file. Click Next.
After you provide the license, the installer verifies
whether the license is valid. If the installer cannot verify a valid
license, you can continue with the installation; however, the product
will stop working in 30 days, unless you obtain and install an appropriate
license.
A final window appears, indicating that the installation was successful. Click Finish.
You cannot install ETL Server on UNIX and Linux using the GUI mode. To install ETL Server on these platforms, use the non-GUI modes. See “Installing Sybase ETL Server in non-GUI modes.”
