Licensed for Deployment
Checklist Before Installing
A license for deployment allows the installer to offer greater options in names, locations,
and JVM.
◆ Checklist in preparation for deployment installation of Progress Sonic 8.5:
1. [ ] Required license keys — You must have license keys to install deployment
software:
■ Domain Manager install — Deployment license keys:
❑ Requires a SonicMQ deployment license key.
❑ Adding a Sonic ESB license key provides support for ESB deployments.
❑ Adding a Sonic BPEL Server license key extends ESB deployments for
developed Sonic BPEL Servers.
■ Administration Tools install — None of the tools require license keys.
2. [ ] Supported platform — Confirm that the system where you plan to perform an
installation is a supported platform. For more information, see the Progress Sonic
Web page, www.progress.com/Sonic.
3. [ ] Disk space available — Confirm that you have adequate disk space (and, under
Linux, available disk quota in your target directory) for the installation. If you are
installing from media, you need at least 1.2 GB and should have at least another
400 MB available disk space for data files and logs.
4. [ ] Installation location is not in use — An existing target directory should be a new
directory or cleared of any residual artifacts from a previous Sonic installation.
5. [ ] Default port available — Check whether the default port value, 2506, is in use. You
can choose any port you want but the selected port number must not be in use.
6. [ ] Launcher Installer is available to setup distributed hosts — The Sonic Container
Launcher will need to be installed on distributed systems that will host containers.
The Launcher installer requires no license keys and can create a management
container that includes a Host Manager as a component.
