If Stepwise is activated in the Installation Start Screen, a message is displayed for each executed item contained in the Status Screen. This display allows you to interrupt the installation procedure.
Step 1: INSTALL PARAMETERS
After installing the serverdb kernel parameters (Install Parameters), the minimum values for the configuration parameters of the operating system kernel are displayed for a check.
Example under UNIX:
Fig.: Step Screen 1
The operating system kernel must be adapted to these requirements, if necessary. To do so, interrupt the installation procedure at this point, change the operating system kernel, and repeat the installation (see Section Configuration / Install Serverdb).
Step 2: START SERVERDB COLD & INIT CONFIGURATION
Fig.: Step Screen 2
The second step initializes the serverdb with the selected configuration after starting the serverdb into cold mode.
Step 3: ACTIVATE SERVERDB or RESTORE
If the installation is continued using Continue, the following screen is displayed after initializing the configuration:
Fig.: Step Screen 3
At this point, the installation can be loaded from an existing data backup version using the Restore button or the serverdb can be activated without loading data using the Continue button. Make sure that the data backup to be loaded with restore is consistent. Afterwards, the serverdb is in COLD operating mode and must be started into WARM operating mode.
Step 4: LOAD SYSTEM TABLES
If the installation is continued with Continue, Activate Serverdb is performed and after that, the question is displayed whether the system tables are to be loaded. For a restore, it is not necessary to load the system table.
Fig.: Step Screen 4
This is the last installation step.
