Install Only the Server Components

You would typically only install the server components onto a computer that you have set aside for use by BusinessObjects Enterprise. When you perform this installation scenario, the server components are installed, the default user and group accounts are created, and the sample reports are published to the system. When the installation is complete, the servers are automatically started.

The Installation Type screen in the following procedure displays after you have completed the initial setup of the BusinessObjects Enterprise installation.

To install only the server components

  1. On the Installation Type screen, select Custom or Expand.
  2. Select the Server top-level feature under BusinessObjects Enterprise.
  3. Deselect the Client Components and Web Tier Component features.
  4. Deselect SQL Anywhere under Central Management Server if you plant to use an existing database server.
  5. Deselect Auditor under Central Management Server if you do not want to configure an auditing database.
  6. Press Enter to submit your selections.

If you deselected the CMS feature, you must cluster the installed servers to an existing CMS. If you only deselected SQL Anywhere, specify the CMS clustering information. If you chose to Install SQL Anywhere, configure your new database.
