Installing Active Administrator server


	NOTE: The server needs to be installed on only one computer.

To install Active Administrator server

1

Unzip the Active Administrator folder, browse to the Installation folder, and run the Active Administrator 8.7 Console.msi.

2

On the Welcome screen of the Install Wizard, click Next.

3

Click View License Agreement.

8

Click Install.

•

If you receive a message that some files are currently in use, click OK to close the applications automatically.

•

If you receive a message that setup was unable to close the applications, close the applications manually, and then click OK.

9

Click Finish.

Launch Configuration Wizard is selected by default. When you click Finish, you continue to the configuration wizard. See Configuring the server.

Configuring the server

The AA Configuration Wizard guides you through configuring the various services that are required to run Active Administrator. After this initial configuration, you can modify the server configuration within the Active Administrator console under the Configuration module.

If you are upgrading Active Administrator or have already run the configuration wizard, your previous settings appear on each page. You can quickly page through the wizard accepting the current settings or take the opportunity to make changes to your setup.


	NOTE: Email settings are not configured through this wizard, they configured on the Configuration landing page in the Active Administrator Console.

To run the AA Configuration Wizard

1

If you are installing Active Administrator, the configuration wizard opens automatically. Otherwise, open the AA Configuration Wizard from the Start menu.

2

On the Welcome page, click Next.

•

The first time you start the configuration wizard, you must apply a valid license file. See Applying a license file.

•

If you are upgrading Active Administrator, you are asked if you want to upgrade your existing live database and all archive databases. If you select Yes, proceed to Configuring purge and archive settings. If you select No, see Setting the Active Administrator database.

To configure the Active Administrator console, follow the steps in these sections:

•

•

Applying a license file

NOTE:

•

The full and evaluation versions of Active Administrator are identical. The license file is the sole determinant of program functionality.

•

During the free 30-day trial period, there is unlimited auditing of domain controllers. The Certificate Management features are not included.

•

The Active Directory Health feature requires a separate license. If you do not have a license file to apply, the module does not appear in Active Administrator.

•

An Active Administrator license is required for the Certificates module. If you do not have a license applied to your installation, the module will not appear in Active Administrator.

To apply the license file

1

Select the licenses to update, and click Update License.


	NOTE: You also can update licenses from the Active Administrator Server Manager. From the Start menu, open AA Server Manager, and click Update License.

2

Locate the license files. A license file is approximately 1 KB in size and has a .dlv file extension. Once applied, the License Status should indicate Installed.

•

To view details of a license, select the license, and click Details.

3

Click Next. See Using a passphrase.

Using a passphrase

A passphrase is used to control access to Active Administrator data. A passphrase is similar to a password in usage, but is generally longer for added security. Active Administrator content will be secured using the passphrase and requires the passphrase for accessing the content or for changing the passphrase.


	CAUTION: You must know the current passphrase to change or restore the passphrase. It is very important to record the passphrase in a secure location where it can be retrieved when required. CAUTION: If the passphrase is lost, it will be impossible to access Active Administrator data. You will have to uninstall Active Administrator, remove all associated files, and start a new installation of Active Administrator. For more information, see Recovering from a lost passphrase .


	NOTE: You can manage the passphrase from the Active Administrator Server Manager. From the Start menu, open AA Server Manager, and click Manage in the Security Manager section.

If an existing passphrase is detected on your system, you have the option to use it to configuring an existing Active Administrator installation with an existing database or to generate a new passphrase for a new database.

To use a new passphrase

1

Select Use a new passphrase and enter a string that is at least 25 characters long or click Generate Passphrase to have a cryptographically-random passphrase generated for you.

2

Quest suggests that you select to copy the passphrase value for your records as it will not be available once the Configuration wizard has been completed.

3

Click Next. See Setting the Active Administrator database.

To use an existing passphrase

1

Select to Use an existing passphrase.

2

Click Next. See Setting the Active Administrator database.
