Installing on a single server

This section describes how to install the Enterprise Vault server software when you have only one server that runs Enterprise Vault tasks.

To install the Enterprise Vault 9.0 server software

  1. Log on as the Vault Service account.

  2. Stop the Enterprise Vault Admin service. This stops the Admin service itself, and any other Enterprise Vault services.

  3. Stop any other services or applications that can lock Enterprise Vault files. For example:

    • Enterprise Vault Administration Console

    • Enterprise Vault Accelerator Manager service

    • Enterprise Vault Placeholder service

    • Enterprise Vault File Blocking service

    • Enterprise Vault File Collector service

    • Windows Event Viewer

  4. Close Computer Management.

  5. If you are installing on an Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway, make sure that the Domino server on the Enterprise Vault Domino Gateway is shut down and that EVInstall.nsf is not being accessed locally.

  6. Load the Enterprise Vault 9.0 media.

  7. Using Windows Explorer, open the folder \Enterprise Vault 9.0\Server.

  8. Double-click the file setup.exe to start the installation.

  9. Work through the installation.

  10. Install the Enterprise Vault Reporting component on computers on which Enterprise Vault Reporting is installed.

The Enterprise Vault software installation is now complete, but you must obtain license keys for any additional services that you intend to run.
