To start the Management Server (the default setting), click Next.
If you do not want the installer to start the Management Server, clear the Run Now check box, then click Next.

If you selected Run Now, the installer starts Foglight and the Foglight Server Startup page launches in a web browser (if a web browser is available). If a web browser is not available, the Foglight Server Startup page does not launch.
See Foglight Server Startup page for more information.
In either case, the Install Complete screen appears.

Foglight Server Startup page

If you selected the Run Now check box in the Foglight Server Startup step in the installer, the installer starts Foglight and launches the Foglight startup page.

When the server startup is complete, a link to the Foglight login page appears. For more information, see Logging in to Foglight.

NOTE: The default link to the login page points to http://localhost:8080. In some instances, this link may not correspond to the URL of your Foglight server. In such cases, see Why does clicking the login link on the server startup page not work?.

Next steps

If you performed a Custom Install and you did not install a license in Step 14: Add Foglight license file, follow the instructions in Importing a license file after installation to provide a license file to the Management Server after installation.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: See the Administration and Configuration Guide for information about license requirements, managing licenses, and the different categories of cartridges (based on their license requirements).

If you did not select the Run Now option in the Foglight Server Startup step of the installer, start the Management Server by following the instructions in Starting and stopping the Management Server.
