Installing Optimize

You must run the HCL® Marketing Software installer to start the installation of Optimize. The HCL Marketing Software installer starts the Optimize installer during the installation process. Make sure that the HCL Marketing Software installer and the product installer are saved at the same location.

Each time that you run the HCL Marketing Software suite installer, you must first enter database connection information for the Marketing Platform system tables. When the Optimize installer starts, you must enter the required information for Optimize.

Note: The HCL Marketing Software installer requires information about Marketing Platform.

After installing Optimize, you can create an EAR file for your product, and you can install the reports package for your product. Creating the EAR file and installing the reports package are not mandatory actions.

After installing Opportunity Detect, you can create an EAR file if necessary.

Important: Before you install Optimize, make sure that the available temporary space on the computer where you install Optimize is more than three times the size of the Optimize installer.

For information about installing Optimize on clustered environment, see "Cluster Configuration" in the IBM SPSS® Collaboration and Deployment Services (C&DS) Guide.

Note: Information about using web application clustering in HCL Campaign is provided in HCL Campaign web application clustering.

Installation files

The installation files are named according to the version of the product and the operating system on which they must be installed, except UNIX™. For UNIX, different installation files exist for the X Window System mode and the console mode.

The following table displays examples of the installation files that are named according to the product version and the operating system:

Note: For Suse Linux operating system use the corresponding product Linux build except for Campaign and Contact Optimization.

Note: : EAR deployments are not supported on Tomcat application server
