to return to the
Windows

wizard.

and follow the wizard.
Tip:
It is a good idea to have your Windows installation DVD ready; it may be required during the process.
When IIS is installed, you will be returned to the
RC-E Management Server Installation
window for the next step of the
installation.
Step 2: RC-E Management Server Database
Before completing this step, click the
View Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express End-user License Agreement
link to
read the license agreement for the software.
This step opens the
Database Setup
wizard, which will guide you through the process of preparing a database for use
with the management server.
In the
Database Setup
wizard you will get the choice of using an existing SQL Server on the network or setting up a
SQL Server Express Edition (a lightweight, yet powerful, version of a full SQL server) on the management server
computer itself.
Follow the wizard's steps by clicking
Next
.
IMPORTANT:
We recommend that you install the database on a dedicated hard disk drive that is not used for
anything else but the database. Installing the database on its own drive will prevent low disk performance.
IMPORTANT:
During the database preparation process, you will be asked whether you want to create a new
database, use an existing database, or overwrite an existing database. For a new installation, you would typically
select the default option
Create new database.
However, if you are installing the database as part of upgrading to a
newer version of RC-E, and you want to use your existing database, make sure you select
Use existing database
.
When you have prepared the database, you will be returned to the
OnSSI RC-E Management Server Installation
window for the last step in the management server installation.
Step 3: RC-E Management Server
This step opens a wizard, which will guide you through the process of installing the management server software
itself.
Follow the wizard's steps by clicking
Next
.
Tip:
The wizard will ask you to specify the location of your temporary license (.lic) file. The system will verify your
license file before you are able to continue. Therefore, have your license file ready.
On one of the wizard's steps, you will be asked to select between two installation options:
Typical (on page 16)
-or
-
Custom (on page 16)
You may install the log server as part of the management server installation. But if required you can just as well install
this on another server in your surveillance system:
Installing the log server (see "Install Log Server (Custom)" on page 21) provides the necessary functionality for
logging information from your RC-E installation.
