5.5 Understanding the AppManager Pre‑Installation Check

After you select the components to install from the AppManager setup program, the AppManager pre-installation check script verifies system requirements and generates a report that summarizes the results. You can view the report from the Confirmation window of the AppManager setup program. For each requirement, the report provides information about how your environment meets or does not meet the requirement and the check result. The following results are possible:

  • Passed - Your environment passed the check.

  • Warning - Your environment passed the check, but configuration issues exist.

  • Failed - Your environment failed the check.

If a component fails the pre-installation check, the setup program does not allow you to install that component, but does allow you to install other components that passed the check.

The AppManager setup program does not perform a pre-installation check for the Knowledge Base or the NetIQ AppManager Integration Adapter. A pre-installation check report for the AppManager adapter is available from the AppManager adapter setup program.

To generate a pre-installation check report:

  1. Using an account with local Administrator privileges, run Setup.exe from the location where you saved the AppManager installation files.

  2. Click Start Installation.

  3. On the Welcome window, select Production.

  4. Select the components you plan to install and click Next.

    The AppManager pre-installation check script verifies system requirements for each component you selected and generates a report that summarizes the results.

  5. To view the pre-installation check report, on the Confirmation window, click the link.

If your environment passed all requirements, you are ready to install components. If your environment did not pass all requirements, resolve issues and re-generate the pre-installation check report.
