Downloading the installation files

You obtain the product installation files by downloading them from the BMC Electronic Product Distribution (EPD) website. Your ability to access product pages on the EPD website is determined by the license entitlements purchased by your company. To understand which files you are entitled to download, access the license entitlements for your product. 

When to download a service pack

For a fresh installation or an upgrade, check the release notes to determine the latest update and then download the following:

  • The latest release or service pack (if available).
    For service packs, the installer will install or upgrade the full product. For example, when you install version 5.0.02, it installs version 5.0.01 along with enhancements that were made in 5.0.00 (Patch1).
  • Any hotfixes that are available for known issues

If you sign up forProactive Notification, you will be notified about new service packs or patches for applying the latest changes, as well as bulletins about critical fixes.

Installation files

The following table provides links to the page in the EPD website that contains the installation files for this product. From the EPD page you can select and download the installation files for your platform. Access to the EPD website requires that you provide your BMC Support credentials. You might also be prompted to complete the Export Compliance Form.

Note

On Windows computers, ensure that the directory is only one level into the directory structure. The EPD package creates a directory in the temporary directory when you extract the files, and the directory that  contains the installation image should not be in a directory deeper than two levels into the directory structure.
