If this is the initial installation of Ultrasound and you plan
to install the controller and console on the same server, choose a
complete installation. Otherwise, choose a custom installation to
install the console on a separate computer or to install the
controller on a server where the database is already installed.
Performing a Complete Installation
A complete installation installs the console and controller on
the same server. MSDE or SQL Server 2000 SP3a must already be
installed on a server before you begin installation.
To perform a complete installation
Run Setup_Ultrasound.exe to begin installation.
Follow the directions in the installation wizard and choose
Complete for the setup type.
When prompted to enter a database server, type
server\DBInstance that corresponds to the server name where
you installed the database and the instance name of the database.
If you did not specify a database instance when you installed MSDE
or SQL Server 2000, just type the server name.
Do not type "localhost" to specify the database server
name; use the actual name of the server instead. For example,
if you are installing Ultrasound on a server called MyServer and
this server has an MSDE database instance called "frsmon" already
installed, specify "MyServer\frsmon" for the database
server.
For the database name, type a name to use as the database name
or use the default database name "Ultrasound."
Follow the instructions to complete the installation.
Performing a Custom Installation
A custom installation allows you to install the controller and
console separately and is typically used to install the console on
administrators’ client computers. You can also perform a custom
installation to install the controller on a server that has access
to a database on another server or the same server.
To perform a custom installation
Run Setup_Ultrasound.exe to begin installation.
Follow the directions in the installation wizard and choose
Custom for the setup type.
For the component that you do not want to install, click the
drop-down arrow next to the component name and click This
feature will not be available.
Do one of the following:
If you are installing the console, follow the instructions to
complete the wizard. The first time you start the Ultrasound
console, you are prompted to enter a database server and database
name.
If you are installing the controller, you are prompted to enter
a database server and database name. Provide this information, and
then follow the instructions to complete the wizard. If the
database server or database instance name does not exist, you are
notified that Ultrasound cannot connect to the server, and
installation fails. Verify that the database service is running and
accessible and try running setup again.
