your existing network, database, authentication, security, and operating

systems.

SAP BusinessObjects BI platform can be installed on Windows, Unix, or

Linux platforms, with a combination of supported web servers, web

application servers, database servers, and web technologies. You decide

how the components that make up SAP BusinessObjects BI platform will

be deployed. A small development deployment might use the setup

program's default options to install SAP BusinessObjects BI platform, a

database, and a web application server on a single computer system. Alarger scale deployment might install individual server components on

dedicated systems to host individual server functions over a network.

There are two different methods of running the installation program for SAPBusinessObjects BI platform:

• Interactive installation An interactive wizard prompts for all information related to the installation. Use this option toselect individual installation options from a series of screens. This is the default installationmethod.

• Silent installationInstallation options are given on the command-line, which override the installation program'sdefault values. The command-line can be used to give some or all installation options. When aninstallation option is not given on the command-line, the installation program uses a defaultvalue.

Installation options can be given in a response file rather than directly on the command-line.This type of silent installation uses the -r command-line parameter to read installation options

from the response file. Use this option if you want to install multiple machines with the sameconfiguration. Installation options stored in a response file can be overridden by giving them onthe command-line.When the -q (quiet mode) switch is used, the installation program does not prompt for any userinput during the installation.




Installation Server----run an interactive installation

1. Log in at the console with a minimum screen resolution of 1024 × 768.

2. Locate the installation program setup.exe.3. Run setup.exe by double-clicking it in Windows Explorer

4. Choose a language for the setup program to use during the installation process. The language

setting is used by the installation program to display information to you in the language of your choice

5. The installation program checks for required components. Review the results and decide whether

to continue with the installation, or abort and correct any unmet requirements.

server.

If you already have a supported web application server installed, you can deselect the option to

install Tomcat, and only install the Java web applications




Installation Server----run a silent installation

1.Giving installation options on the command-line

2.Giving installation options in a response fileInstallation options can be stored in a response file, which is a text file containing installation option

parameters in key-value format. When using a response file to give installation options, the

installation program is run from the command-line with the -r <RESPONSE_FILE> parameter, where

<RESPONSE_FILE> is the name of the response file.

To create a response file, run the installation program with the –

General information about installing SAP BusinessObjects BI Client Tools

own standalone installation program. This allows you to install the client application by itself,

without having to install the Client Tools suite's Custom installation option.

• Client Tools can co-exist on a system that also runs SAP BusinessObjects BI platform server

software. When installing both SAP BusinessObjects BI platform servers and Client Tools on thesame system, it is recommended that the SAP BusinessObjects BI platform server components

(including add-ons and language packs) are installed before Client Tools. This allows the Client

Tools to same the same components as the server

• No keycode is required to install Client Tools, but you require administrative privileges for the

account being used to run the installation program.

• If a file is in use during the installation, the installation program recommends a system reboot

when the install is complete. It is recommended that you restart the system prompted at the end

of an installation if a reboot is recommended.
