Chapter 3: Using <strong>Progress</strong> <strong>Sonic</strong> Launcher Installer<br />

Installing <strong>Sonic</strong> Container Launcher<br />

The <strong>Sonic</strong> Container Launcher Installer provides the <strong>Progress</strong> <strong>Sonic</strong> software required to<br />

setup, launch, <strong>and</strong> upgrade <strong>Sonic</strong> management containers on systems where it is installed.<br />

The installation procedure also lets you configure a new container. A Java Runtime<br />

Environment is required by the installed software, <strong>and</strong> the preferred JRE for Windows can<br />

be installed during the procedure.<br />

The installer software supports two techniques for installation:<br />

● Graphical Installer wizard.<br />

● Unattended install with tailored data.<br />

In each of these techniques you are prompted with information that you can change to<br />

tailor the characteristics of the current installation.<br />

Note Tailoring the Prompts in the Installer — The prompts you get in the installer can be<br />

tailored in advance so that your preferred prompts are displayed. Tailoring the prompts<br />

for an installation enables running the installer with the set of prompts to complete the<br />

process unattended. The following chapter, Chapter 5, “Using Response Files with<br />

Installers,” describes how to capture <strong>and</strong> prepare response files.<br />

The following section on the graphical installer wizard describes the sequence <strong>and</strong> data<br />

entry that is entered through all the installer techniques.<br />

Starting the <strong>Sonic</strong> Container Launcher Installer<br />

The <strong>Sonic</strong> Container Launcher Installer does not require license keys (control codes).<br />

However, if you intend to create a container configuration as part of installation, you must<br />

know the connection URL of the Domain Manager (or a management routing node) that<br />

will manage the container, <strong>and</strong>—if the management broker is security enabled—you need<br />

authentication credentials.<br />

The startup instructions are described separately for Windows, UNIX, <strong>and</strong> Red Hat Linux.<br />

◆ To start the Installer wizard on Windows:<br />

1. Mount the distribution media or unpack the installer package on the local system.<br />

2. Open a console at the folder that has install_container_launcher.exe.<br />

3. Run install_container_launcher.exe.<br />

The installer starts. Follow the procedures for “Running the Container Launcher Installer”<br />

on page 111.<br />
