Creating the Administrative Install on the Server

The first part of the administrative install consists in copying the PowerDesigner files to a server. You are not required to enter any product key or select any feature to install. All PowerDesigner setup files are decompressed and copied to the server, but the server registry and system files will not be affected.

  1. Insert the CD-ROM in the drive to automatically launch the setup program. The initial setup dialog box is displayed. Click the Administrative Installation button.

    or

    Select Start > Run, type the PowerDesigner setup.exe path followed by /a in the Run dialog box and click OK.



    The welcome page is displayed.

  2. Click Next to display the network location page.
  3. Specify the network location where you want to copy the product files, and then click Install.

    The setup status page displays a progress box while the files are copied to the destination directory. When this process is complete, the complete page opens.

  4. Click Finish to exit the InstallShield Wizard.
