The Server/Database install sets up the Lucity configuration and performed database updates and maintenance. This changes are crucial to the rest of the install and must be performed first because they provide all the other Lucity products information for connecting to the databases.
Installation Requirements
Lucity Databases - The databases that all Lucity information will be saved to. (Setup covered in the New Server installation section)
Lucity Share - The shared location that will store shared configuration information and reports. (Setup covered in the New Server installation section)
LicenseCodes.xml - The license file provided by Lucity.
System Admin credentials - SQL Server or Oracle database credentials.
Installation Suggestions
It is highly suggested to run the Server installation/upgrade directly on a desktop machine. This ensures that the paths used during the installation/configuration are valid network paths. When the server is installed/upgraded this way there will be a Lucity Server entry in that desktop's Programs and Features list. This can be left alone or un-installed, it will not effect Lucity in any way.
