Installation overview

The following installation flowchart explains the options to chose in the installer, depending on your environment and requirements. If you are installing the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management solution for the first time and you do not have any of the products from the solution already installed in your environment, you will be performing a new deployment.

For all new deployments, you choose the New Deployment option in the installer only when you launch the installer the first time. For all subsequent runs of the installer, you choose the Modify Existing Deployment option.

For all standalone products that exist in your environment, make sure that you upgrade them to the versions supported by Cloud Lifecycle Management before you integrate them with the solution. Depending on the standalone product, you might need to perform different set of steps to integrate the product as outlined in the flowchart. For example, the steps rquired to integrate an existing BMC BladeLogic Network Administration are different from the steps required to integrate BMC Remedy AR System.
