If you would like to install the license server from a release area or set up a silent installation, see the instructions in the installation guide for your IBM Rational® product. The Setup wizard guides you through the software installation. Click Next to launch the installation and to advance through the following screens.
The installation wizard does not display an error summary. To verify that an installation was successful or to understand why it failed, look in the installation activities log. The install.log file is in your TEMP directory (for example, TEMP=C:\DOCUME~1\<username>\LOCALS~1\Temp or C:\temp\install.log). The location of the directory depends on the system environment variable set on the computer.
Attention: Interrupting an installation that is in progress may leave your computer in an indeterminate state. If you try to close the Setup wizard window while the installation is in progress, you are asked to confirm that you want to exit from the incomplete installation.
The Setup wizard starts automatically.
If autorun is disabled on your computer, click Start > Run and enter
cd_drive:\Setup.exe where cd_drive is the letter of the CD drive.
Reminder: The installation wizard requires that all Rational products be installed in the same directory.
Select Restart or Don’t Restart. If you select Don’t Restart, the wizard reminds you that the installation cannot complete until Windows restarts.
After Windows restarts, log on as the same user. If you do not, the installation does not complete correctly. The second part of the installation process starts automatically after you log on.
Reminder: Install the floating license keys on the license server before you start the license server. See Using floating keys on a Windows license server.
