AWMS Hardware Requirements and Installation Media
The AWMS installation CD includes all software (including the Linux OS) required to complete the installation
of the AirWave Wireless Management Suite. AWMS supports any hardware that is Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
certified. By default, all installs are based on a 64-bit operating system.
AWMS hardware requirements vary by version. As additional features are added to AWMS, increased hardware
resources become necessary. For the most recent hardware requirements, download the

Installing Linux CentOS 5 (Phase 1)
Perform the following steps to install the Linux CentOS 5 operating system. The Linux installation is a
prerequisite to installing AWMS on the network management system.
1. Insert the AWMS installation CD-ROM into the drive and boot the server.
2. If this is a new installation of the AWMS software, type
install
and press
Enter
.
To configure the partitions manually, type
expert
and press
Enter

Note: AWMS does not support downgrading to older versions. Significant data could be lost or compromised in such a
downgrade. In unusual circumstances requiring that you return to an earlier version of AWMS, we recommend you perform a
fresh installation of the earlier AWMS version, and then restore data from a pre-upgrade backup.
Caution: This procedure erases the hard drive(s) on the server
Note: When you press Enter, all existing data on the hard drive is erased.
