One copy of the Evolve Suite client software must be installed per terminal server machine, each of which runs Microsoft Terminal Services and is accessed by many users.
While Microsoft Terminal Services is the primary supported environment for this type of installation, you can set up a similar environment using other remote access technologies such as Citrix, as long as they are 100% compatible with Microsoft Terminal Services.
For a Terminal Server installation, the client software cannot be installed with the stand-alone database option and must be configured to connect to a networked database that is on a different computer to the Terminal Server/Evolve Suite client.
Quest does not formally test Evolve Suite in specific virtual environments. If you experience problems running Evolve Suite in a virtual environment, and these problems cannot be reproduced outside the virtual environment, Quest requires that you seek support from your virtualization vendor. Virtual environments must be configured as per the System Requirements for the equivalent real machine.
Quest does not support the investigation of performance issues for virtual environments that have not been configured in line with the System Requirements.
Apart from performance problems caused by inadequate virtual machine resources, Quest is not currently aware of any problems running Evolve Suite on Microsoft Virtual Server or VMware.
Document Generator can be installed by itself, or alongside Evolve Suite, either on a server or a desktop machine.
The only requirements additional to those listed for Evolve Suite are:
Microsoft Word 2013 or 2016 (32-bit or 64-bit versions)
A working Evolve Repository to store data.
The Data Layer and CMXML Export components needed to connect to the repository are installed automatically.
Important:
If you are installing Evolve Suite 2020 on Windows Server 2016 or above, you will need to install Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime prior to using Document Generator. These files can be obtained from the Microsoft website.
Failing to install Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime may have undesirable effects such as Microsoft Word failing to save the Document Generator add-in.
V-Modeler can be installed on a machine by itself, or alongside Evolve Suite.
The only requirements additional to those listed for Evolve Suite are:
Microsoft Visio 2010 or 2013 (32-bit versions only)
A working Evolve Repository to store data.
While V-Modeler can run on a 64-bit version of Windows, it cannot be installed for a 64-bit version of Visio. Visio has 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Please check which version you are using before installing V-Modeler. To do this run Visio and go to File > Help – the About Microsoft Visio section contains the version details.
