2 Options for Completing the Installation of the Arellia Management Server

There are 2 options for completing the installation, if your database has already been configured with a database and user for Arellia to use, then follow option 1. Otherwise have your SA database account credentials ready and follow option 2.

Option 1: Database is already configured

  1. Before continuing make sure that the database pre-requisites have been followed, namely that the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator has been enabled (see Database Requirements)
  2. From the Web Platform Installer, go to the Arellia tab.

  5. Follow the prompts to setup the Arellia Management Server. 
  6. If certain prerequisites aren't installed such as certain SQL plugins or WebDeploy 3.5, the Web Platform Installer and IIS will close and you will have to open them both again, and in some cases, a reboot of the computer is required. It is absolutely best to have all of the prerequisites installed beforehand.
