Chapter 3 Installing SmartView EMS
3.3 Setup EMS
3.3.1 Introduction
Starting with the release of EMS 2.34, the installation procedure has been further streamlined with a GUI
installation shell and unattended installation of MS-SQL 2008 Express. The preferred method of installation is by using
the EMS CD-ROM. The CD will either be shipped in a full shrink wrapped package or the ISO image can be
downloaded and then burned to a blank CDR. A ZIP file may also be downloaded, upzipped locally and run from local
disk. The installation process will follow these basic steps:
1. Autorun the CD-ROM or from the unzipped files run the "EMSInstaller.exe" program
2. Install Java Runtime Environment
3. Install MS-SQL Database Server (single click un-attended installation)
4. Setup MS-SQL through SQL Server Configuration Manager (optional)
5. Install EMS
6. Apply any upgrade patches and re-initial database (if required)
7. Install license or manually copy your authorized SN.txt file
3.3.2 Autorun
Insert the CDROM into your PC's CD/DVD/BD drive. If Autorun is enabled, the installation screen will
automatically start. If not, open the CD folder and double-click the "EMSInstaller" icon. Optionally, if you have
downloaded and unzipped the installation set to local disk, double click the EMSInstaller program.
1. CD Distribution
The CD is designed to be Autorun. It includes the latest Java Runtime Environment and Microsoft's free MS-SQL
Server 2008 Express in English, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. If Autorun is disabled on your PC, open
the CDROM folder and double-click the "EMSInstaller" icon.
2. Download
The download file is a ZIP file (a folder of the original CD but for English only). Use extraction software, such as 7Zip (or WinZip™), to extract the file to the local drive. After being unzipped the installer can be run directly from those
extracted files.
