Setting up the installation environment


This topic describes how to set up the installation environment. 

Before you begin

  • Ensure that the system meets the hardware and software requirements listed in System-requirements.
  • If you do not plan to install PostgreSQL database during the installation of BMC Release Process Management, create a PostgreSQL database, an Oracle database, or a Microsoft SQL database before performing the installation.
  • If you plan to install BMC Release Lifecycle Management on a remote computer on the Windows platform, you might want to set the required Terminal Server configuration options.

To set the Terminal Server configuration options (optional)

On a Windows computer, to enable running the installation wizard through a Terminal Services connection or a remote desktop session, you must turn off certain Terminal Server configuration options that pertain to temporary folders.

  2. Select Server Settings.
  3. Disable the following options by setting each to No:
    • Delete temporary folders on exit
    • Use temporary folders per session
