Downloading from the EPD site


The following topic describes the process for downloading the installation files from the EPD site.

  1. Create a directory in which to place the downloaded files.

    Warning

    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.

  2. Go to https://webepd.bmc.com/epd/.
  3. Enter your user ID and password, and click Submit.
  4. Click Download Product.
  5. On the Export Compliance and Access Terms page, provide the required information, agree to the terms of the agreements, and click Continue.
  6. If you are accessing this site for the first time, create an EPD profile; otherwise, skip to step7
    1. Under Localized Languages, select the language for the product release.
    2. Under Install Platforms, select the platforms to download for the product.
    3. Click Save Profile.
  7. Verify that the correct profile is displayed for your download purpose, and select the Licensed Products tab.
  8. Locate the product:
    1. Locate the product name and expand its entries to show the available version
      numbers.
    2. Expand the version number to show the available product files and
      documentation.
    3. Select the check box next to the product files and documentation to download.
  9. To download the selected items, click Download (FTP) or Download Manager:
  • Download (FTP) places the selected items in an FTP directory and the credentials and FTP instructions are sent to you in an e-mail message.
  • Download Manager enables you to download multiple files consecutively, and to resume an interrupted download if the connection drops.
    This method requires a one-time installation of the AkamiNetSession Client program on the target computer and is usually the faster and more reliable way to transfer files. A checksum is used to verify file integrity.
