Starting the launchpad

About this task

The launchpad performs an administrative installation of the product. To perform a non-administrative installation, switch to the InstallerImage_<platform> folder in the disk1 directory, and run userinst.exe (for Windows®), or userinst (for Linux®).

To start the launchpad, complete the following steps.

  1. Insert the product DVD into your DVD drive. For Linux, ensure that you have mounted the DVD drive.
  2. If autorun is enabled on your computer, the launchpad automatically opens. If autorun is not enabled on your system, complete one of these steps:
    • On Windows systems:
      • For an administrator installation, run setup.exe, which is located in the root directory of the DVD.
      • For a non-administrator installation, run userinst.exe, which is located in the \disk1\InstallerImage_win32\ directory of the DVD.
    • For Linux:
      • For a root user installation, run setup, which is located in the root directory of the DVD.
      • For a non-root installation, run userinst, which is located in the /disk1/InstallerImage_linux/ directory of the DVD.
