Introduction

Welcome to the AE installationation Guide. The following chapter explains the installation and operation principles of your AE system.

Different environments will require use of different components, each with its own installation procedure.

The main installation areas are:

  1. Installing the components
  2. Creating Clients and Users
  3. Configuring the AE system
  4. Creating an Authorization System

Each of the above areas includes its own set of steps. Individual documents or chapters provide descriptions of each set of procedures, while also making it easy to maintain a clear overview of each portion of the process.

Proper use of the Automation Engine requires at least two AE systems to be installed. Read the guidelines regarding a test and production system before you begin the installation.

Do not use directory names for the Automation Engine and the Agents that include blanks. For further details, see http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/102739/en
