Before you install the mid tier, install the following components. See the pre-installation considerations (if any) for these components in the sections that follow.

The following table lists the components to install before you install the mid tier:

The AR System server can be installed locally, but the mid tier is typically installed on a separate computer with network access to the server.

  • BusinessObjects Enterprise XI (recommended)
  • Crystal Reports Server XICrystal Web Component Server (which requires advance configuration) is available from http://www.businessobjects.com/ . If this server is installed remotely, you must share the mid tier installation directory with the remote Crystal Server, specifying the full path to this directory. Make a note of this directory path if you are accessing Crystal Web Component Server over a network.

    Maybe this page should be updated to include specific information about OpenJDK versus an Oracle Java SDK because of this statement of direction....https://docs.bmc.com/docs/brid1902/statement-of-direction-support-for-java-11-851080775.html
