Required IUs for a new LN installation

After one or more IUs are placed in the Staging Area, they can be installed simultaneously to the target system, or selectively installed. The Installation Wizard handles the actual installation of the IUs.

To install the complete LN software for the first time, these installable units are required:

  • Infor Staging Wizard.
  • Infor Installation Wizard.
  • Infor ES Porting Set
  • Infor Enterprise Server
  • Infor LN
  • Infor Solution License Manager
  • Infor ES PMC Solutions
  • Infor ES AddOn PMC Solutions
  • Infor LN PMC Solution

There are two ways to install Infor Solution License Manager:

  • You can select this installable unit so the installation wizard installs SLM together with the other selected installable units in one run. The SLM installable unit installs all SLM components, client and server part, on the LN server system. The default values for SLM are configured. This means a master SLM Server is started at port number 6005.
  • You must use the stand-alone SLM installer in other situations. Possible situations that require the stand-alone SLM installer are:
    • Set your own values,
    • Install a SLM server on another system,
    • Only install a SLM client on the LN system as there already is a SLM server present.
    • Install a SLM cluster.

Before you can proceed with the LN installation, you must have installed SLM or selected the installable unit of SLM. The installation wizard runs a check on SLM components and stops the installation if SLM information is not found.

Staging Installable Units

For installation on a Windows server, the Installable Units must be staged on the LN server itself. For installation on a UNIX/Linux server, the Installable Units must be placed on a Windows client system.

Each IU that must be installed in one installation run is staged in the same Staging Area. No dependency check is made for the IUs loaded into the Staging Area.
