Before you Install

SharePlex Manager provides 24 x 7 monitoring of your entire SharePlex infrastructure, including all source and target instances. If the data replication processes managed by SharePlex are not meeting specific performance requirements, SharePlex Manager helps you detect the source of these problems so that you can quickly resolve them.

Before attempting to install SharePlex Manager 3.1, please do the following:

•
Read this installation guide in its entirety
•
The user installing or uninstalling SharePlex Manager on a Windows platform must be logged in as an “Administrator” locally on that workstation. This requirement does not apply to Linux.
•
Quit all programs that are running on the machine you will install SharePlex Manager, including any SharePlex Web Services instances
•
If upgrading SharePlex Manager, do the following:
a
Verify that you are on version 2.2 or higher.
b
Back up your existing Foglight server and database.
c
Stop SharePlex Web Services.
Note
If you are not on SharePlex Manager version 2.2, you need to upgrade to 2.2 before upgrading to 3.1. For versions earlier than 2.2, contact Quest Support for instructions on upgrading to 3.1.

After downloading and executing the appropriate installer tar or zip file, you install SharePlex Manager in two stages:

1
Install Foglight 6.1.
Detailed instructions (including system requirements) are provided in the document, Foglight Installation and Setup Guide.
2
Install SharePlex Manager 3.1.
This will install both the SharePlex Manager cartridge and SharePlex Web Services, which enables SharePlex Manager to communicate with your SharePlex instances. Both the cartridge and SharePlex Web Services must be installed on the same machine as Foglight.
