Notes prior to installation:
-
It may be desirable to spread the modules across different hosts, to distribute the load and increase performance.
-
If DPE is bound to the computer name, the computer name may be used with the SAF module, also.
-
If this is not the case, or the module is on a different host which cannot access the DPE host via hostname, then the DPE host name will need to be used.
-
-
Use the user account dpeuser | david.
-
Be sure the modules are all set to run as services.
-
As an example of how a DPE Module installation will look, we will be using Utility Processor. Navigate to the directory that the setup executable is located in, and run it; you will be presented with this window.
-
Click 'next'. You will be presented with options to select which features are to be installed.
-
The location to which everything will be installed is specified in the 'Installation Folder' tab. It will default to the Digas directory.
-
Specify the path to DPE. Be certain to specify https in the address— the default is http.
-
After installation completes, the SAF installer will pop up. If it does not, navigate to the directory of the module in question and open it from there.
-
Go to the 'Windows Service Installation' tab. Put in .\safuser, or whatever account is to be operating SAF, and its password. Click 'Install'.
-
When you ope SAF Administrator, you will be greeted with the services currently installed on that host.
