Choose Components
You will have to scroll to see the entire list.
 | If you are reconfiguring an existing installation, the installed components are already checked. If you uncheck a component, it will be unavailable after the installation. |
Clients:
• Creo Elements/Direct Manager Server Client: If you select this option, you are requesting to install the basic Creo Elements/Direct Manager Server Client (typically used for advanced database administration tasks).
If you select a component that requires the Creo Elements/Direct Manager Server Client, it will be selected for you, and a message will be displayed telling you that it was selected.
Servers:
You can either install a specific server or use an existing server. If you do not select a particular server, the installation program assumes that you will be using an existing server (you will enter this information in later steps).
• File Server: Manages model and drawing files for Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager and Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager.
• Database Server: Manages metadata for Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager and Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager.
• Web Server: Enables Web browser access to your models, drawings, and metadata.
• Web Services Server: A Web Services Server is required by Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager for delivery of e-mail notifications of subscribed events. A Web Services compliant interface to external applications running Web Services (such as BizTalk or InfoPath) is also required. Even if BizTalk, InfoPath, or other Web Service-based integrations are not expected, the Web Services Server is still a required component for handling the E-mail Event Notifications from Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager or Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager. If you install this server, you may also want to specify the location of the Mail Server (SMTP). The Mail Server is configured from the Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager Standalone or Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager Standalone Admin screen.
Installing the Web Services Server also installs the Job Spooler Server, which provides the background job processing service for Task Agent jobs. The Job Schedule Processor Service requires the Web Services Server.
• Software Distribution Server: A Web server required for Creo Elements/Direct Manager Server rapid deployment clients and documentation.
◦ Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager and Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager Software: Installing the Software Distribution Server automatically creates the Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager Standalone and Creo Elements/Direct Drawing Manager Standalone rapid deployment packages.
◦ Creo Elements/Direct 3D Access and Creo Elements/Direct 2D Access Software: Selecting this copies the Creo Elements/Direct 2D Access and Creo Elements/Direct 3D Access installation packages to the Software Distribution Server.
| | In order for the Creo Elements/Direct Manager Server deployment functionality to work, the Software Distribution Server and the Web Services Server must be installed on the same computer. |
