Autodesk 18507-051452-9325 - UPG ARCH DESKTOP 2007, Installation Manual

Page: 10 / 104

Overview of Installation
Most Autodesk products offer three installation options. These include
stand-alone, multi-seat stand-alone, and network licensed installations.
Autodesk Design Academy 2007 contains eight individual Autodesk products.
Each of those products has its own installer that offers at least one of the three
types of installation options.
The installation you’ll use depends on which products you want to install.
The recommended installation method for classroom or lab environments is
network licensed or multi-seat stand-alone. Both of these methods require
that you use the Deployment wizard. The Deployment wizard can be run
directly from the product CD or installed on the local drive.
NOTE While all products can be installed using the stand-alone method, the type
of license you’ve purchased should dictate the installation method you use. Some
products
only allow you to use the stand-alone installation method. See Other
Product Quickstart (page 63) for a list of stand-alone products.
Site Configuration
Each Design Academy site uses its own configuration of product deployments
and installations. The installation process can be greatly simplified by only
installing the products that are required for the classroom or lab to operate.
For example, one site might use the Deployment wizard to install
network-licensed versions of Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2007 and
Autodesk VIZ 2007 on 20 computers. Another Design Institute site might use
the Deployment wizard to install multi-seat stand-alone versions of AutoCAD
2007, Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2007, and Autodesk Civil 3D 2007 on
40 computers. Still another site might use the Deployment wizard to install
Autodesk Inventor Professional 11 as a multi-seat stand-alone product on 15
computers in a computer lab, and might also do manual installations of
Autodesk Design Review 2007 on the same 15 computers, one by one.
TIP To reduce installation time, only install what is necessary.
