If you are installing Sybase IQ for the first time, not upgrading from a previous edition, follow these steps:
Read the Sybase IQ Release Bulletin for the latest information. See the special installation instructions section in the release bulletin for any installation instructions not included in this document.
Complete all preinstallation tasks. Apply any required operating system patches, check to see that there is sufficient disk space and memory, and update any necessary configuration changes. See “Pre-installation tasks” for specific information.
Determine the license model you want to use. SySAM supports served and unserved license models. See Chapter 2, “Choosing a License Model" in the Sybase Software Asset Management Users Guide to determine which model is best suited for your environment.
Use the product and licensing information from the e-mail or web key you received from Sybase to logon to the Sybase Product Download Center and generate a license key for your software.
Install Sybase IQ server components, activate your license, then start and test your server. See “Installing Sybase IQ Server” and “Testing installed products” for additional information.
Install and configure Sybase IQ client components. See “Installing Sybase IQ Client Components” and “Configuring Sybase IQ” for more information.
