Before you install Perceptive Content, verify the following information.

  • Verify the installation checklist.
  • Obtain the TCP/IP host name or TCP/IP address and the authorization port (6000 is the default) of the computer on which you will install Perceptive Content Server. You need these to log on the first time.
  • In Windows, verify that Microsoft TCP/IP is installed and configured. On Windows, make sure that you have an NTFS-formatted volume for all Perceptive Content Server executables and directory structures.
  • On Linux, you need to know the root user password unless you plan to run Perceptive Content as a non-root user. For more information about running Perceptive Content as a non-root user, refer to the Running Perceptive Content as a Non-Root User Best Practices Guide.
  • Make sure that you have sufficient disk space for executables and object storage.
  • Decide whether thisis a single server installation or if your environment requires an active-active failover installation.
  • The server and client system time must be synced to GMT using third-party time server software.
