Installation and Configuration Worksheet

Review the information in Installation values to establish a naming convention for your installation values.

Use the worksheet to gather and remember information for installation and afterward for post-install configuration. This information is required for installation.

Note: Where there are two names listed in the Variable Name column, the first refers to the field name on the installation screens. The second name refers to the shorthand term used for that variable in this install guide.
