Installing Media Operations
This chapter tells you how to install the following Media Operations components
manually from the installation DVD or CD:
• Media Operations Server
• XML Gateway
• Media Operations Manager (optional)
Prerequisites
• Minimum requirements for the Media Operations Server: 500 MHz Pentium III
CPU (or above), 256 MB RAM, and 500 MB free disk capacity. A dual processor
machine is highly recommended. Installation checks that sufficient disk space is
available.
• The unlicensed version of the product is a fully functional demo version (see
“Licensing Media Operations” on page 38). The administrator installs license
keys after the product is installed.
• It is recommended to install Media Operations Server onto a tape backup product
client, as it provides a tape backup mechanism for the Media Operations Server
data.
• Media Operations Server installation includes a built-in web server that provides
the web-based Media Operations GUI. The server installation package detects
any existing web server on the system, and warns you that another port (3612)
will be used for Media Operations Web Server (so that it can co-exist with the
existing web server).
• To install the Media Operations Server successfully, you need a local printer. If
no local printer is connected to your system, configure a local printer in your
operating system, even if the printer is not attached.
• Media Operations Clients and Servers in languages that use Western European
character sets (such as ISO extended ASCII) can communicate without issues.
