Installing in Dependent Mode

Install both in-process and out-of-process adapters in Dependent mode. In-process adapters must be installed in Dependent mode.

  1. Get the appropriate adapter installation file for the adapter you want to install. Installation files for Sybase CEP-packaged adapters are located in the adapters directory under your Sybase CEP Server or Sybase CEP Studio installation directory. For mostout-of-process adapters, files are provided with the adapter. If the installation files are compressed, extract them before proceeding.
  2. Double-click the installation file to start installation.

    The Welcome panel of the Sybase CEP Adapter Installer opens. The following steps lead you through the Installer workflow. Options for cancelling install and navigating to previous panels in the workflow are available on every panel before actual installation takes place.

    Click Next to continue.

  3. Choose to install the adapter in Dependent mode. Click Next.
  4. Select the directory where you want to install the adapter and click Next.

    If you are upgrading or reinstalling the adapter and specify that it should be installed in the same directory as an existing installation, a pop-up message indicates that the adapter is already installed in the folder.

    Click Yes to uninstall the previous installation or No to upgrade without uninstalling. If you click Yes, the next panel confirms that the previous version of the adapter will be uninstalled if you continue:

    1. Click Next to continue. The next panels display the uninstall process.
    2. A final install panel opens when installation is complete. Click Next to continue with the upgrade installation.
    Note: If the installer determines that either CEP Server or Studio has not been installed in the designated location, a prompt warns you that the Server or Studio does not exist in that location and asks you to enter another location. Select Yes to return to the Choose Install Folder panel and enter a new install directory, or select No to continue installation without specifying a new install location.
  5. Select whether you want to install a licensed copy of the adapter or to evaluate a trial version of the adapter.
  6. The End-User License Agreement panel asks you to select your geographic region before you can read the Sybase License Agreement. Once you have read the license agreement, accept the terms and conditions to continue. Click Next.
  7. If you selected to install a licensed version of the adapter in Step 5, the SySAM License Entry panel opens. Either specify a new license key, use a previously deployed license server, or continue installation without a license key.
    • If you choose to specify a new license key, either enter the key manually or browse for and load the license key. Click Next to Install a SySAM server.
      Note: If you receive an error saying that the installer detects a SySAM server already running on your machine, click Previous to return to the SySAM License Entry panel and choose to use the previous deployed license server.

      The following panel displays the install process. Once the server install is complete, configure your SySAM email alert mechanism, and click Next to return to your adapter installation.

    • If you choose to use a previously deployed license server, enter the Host Name and Port Number. The SySAM server searches your system for the license server file.
      • If it is available, you are prompted to configure your SySAM email alert mechanism. Click Next to return to your adapter installation.
      • If the license server file is not found, the following panel informs you that the license(s) could not be installed. You may run the adapter for up to 30 days without a license. If you do not obtain and install a license in 30 days, the adapter stops working.
        Note: You may navigate back to the SySAM License Entry panel to re-enter any incorrect information.

        When you click Next to exit the panel and return to the adapter installation, you are informed again about operating the adapter without a license, and asked to confirm that you understand this policy.

  8. View the Pre-Installation Summary and click Next to begin the adapter installation. The next panel displays the installation process.
  9. When the installation competes, an installation summary panel opens. Click Done.
