Installing IBM® UrbanCode Release involves
installing the server and applying licenses. Additionally, when you
install the server for use in a production environment, you supply
connection information for the supporting database.
System requirements
The IBM UrbanCode Release server
requires a 64-bit operating system and JRE. If you plan to install
the server in a production environment, a supporting database is required.
If you do not plan to install the server in a production environment,
you can use the Apache Derby database, which is bundled with the product.
Installing the database
In production environments, IBM UrbanCode Release
can be used with DB2®, Oracle,
MySQL, or Microsoft SQL
Server databases. By default, IBM UrbanCode Release uses
the Derby database. The bundled Derby database is for evaluation purposes.
Installing the server
You can install the server in interactive mode or in silent
mode.
Installing plug-ins
Plug-ins can be installed at any time. You do not need to restart the server after you
install a plug-in by using the graphical user interface.
Managing licenses
Licensing is done in two steps: first, the license server
is identified during installation; second, users are assigned Authorized
User licenses after IBM UrbanCode Release is
running.
