What is in the CA Data Protection Image?

This CA Data Protection image contains all the software you need to deploy CA Data Protection, including CA Data Protection FastStart. It includes product software for installing CA Data Protection on servers and client machines. It contains:

setup.exe and setup32.exe

Located in the root of the distribution image, these executables provide a single starting point for all (manual) installation or upgrade operations, including CA Data Protection FastStart. They launch a universal installation wizard that guides users through the deployment process and launches the relevant component wizard (linked to component source images in the Windows folder; see below).

Run setup.exe on systems with 64-bit operating systems.

Run setup32.exe on systems with 32-bit operating systems.
