D2000 System Configuration Guide
To start the configuration guide, click on the file D2Install.exe in the directory that has been created when creating a new instance.
A structure of the configuration tool is similar to the installer. You may use the "Next" and "Back" buttons when you go through the configuration dialog windows. The "Install" button runs the final configuration.
At first, you have to specify the input configuration file in the initial window. There are two files you may choose - the default configuration file or own file.
The default configuration file D2install.xml contains the default settings of system. This file is used when choosing the option "Default configuration".
The configuration tool enables both the manual and automatic configuration. When you click on "Next" button, the manual configuration will be done. It means, the user is guided through all the necessary dialogs in which he may specify the system settings.
The "Install" button starts the automatic configuration according to chosen configuration. The user cannot change the configuration parameters. There will be used those from the defined configuration file.
A user has three options:
- Use the default configuration (D2install.xml) and manually pass the configuration guide.
- Specify own configuration file and manually pass the configuration guide.
- Specify own configuration file and automatically configure D2000 System without the guide.
When selecting the automatic configuration, all the steps that configure the system are skipped and the final configuration is started (see the section "Final configuration").
All the steps below will be done, when selecting the manual configuration.
Manual configuration
In the installation guide you could chose one of the following types of installation:
- Server
- Client:
- Basic
- Developer
- Remote
Each type of installation requires the different system settings. Therefore, the installation guide is different for each installation. The steps of configuration depend on the type of installation and the marked parameters in the single dialog boxes.
Each rectangle represents one or more configuration catalogs for the setting of system parameters. The configuration proceeds according to the arrows. The upper point represents the start position, i.e. the configuration dialog in which you have to choose a type of installation. The end point represents a final configuration as per the settings.
