Single Server Installation

Clarify Single Server installation uses an executable file provided by Cleo. An Install Wizard guides you through the processes, which when complete, results in the creation of the following resources:

Installation directory: This directory contains utilities, start-up and uninstall executables, database components, and other resources required by the Clarify Server. The default directory name is Clarify_5_Server.

Server workspace directory: The Clarify_5_Runtime_Workspace directory holds database components and other resources used by the server.

Clarify Database: The install process incorporates a PostgreSQL database. There is no user interaction required. Database components can be found in both the installation and server Workspace directories. The database starts as part of the Clarify Single Server start-up.

Desktop icons (optional). If selected, shortcuts will be available for Server Start and Uninstall.

Pre-Install Requirements

  1. Do not run virus protection software over the above directories. (Turn off if running).
  2. A permanent license must be applied after initial server start-up.
  3. The Clarify Server installation executable must be run as an administrator (or user under an Administrator Group).
    • For Linux: it must be run as root and from the terminal.
  4. A Domain User should be used to run and manage the Clarify Server.
    • For Linux: A domain user is required and will be prompted for in the install process. The user must already exist prior to installation.
  5. The installation directory should be shared among related environments.
    • For Linux: the permissions of the install and share will be handled by the install, and will not have to be explicitly set.
  6. Turn off firewall(s), or open ports.
