When you select the Custom option from the Installation Interface, the Select Features dialog box is displayed which provides the following options:
Runtime
AdminTool
DB Migrate Utilities
Runtime
Select this option to install the Runtime software, which includes runtime core, deploy server and shared components.
When you install core runtime, protocol adapters are automatically installed. The following protocol adapters are installed:
RATL over TCP/IP – this is a legacy protocol that is used by version 3.x of Component Enabler.
RATL over MSMQ – for Component Enabler to use Remote Access Server (RATL) over MSMQ.
SOAP over HTTP (Web Services) – SOAP over a HTTP connection is the current standard.
SOAP over MSMQ – uses the SOAP adapter to call over MSMQ.
HUB - a proprietary protocol that allows other Agile Business Suite systems to talk to each other.
NOF/OFF/USER/GLI – proprietary protocols that are mainly used to migrate applications from mainframe hosts to Windows hosts.
AdminTool
Select this option to install the client administration tool as a Microsoft Management Console “snap in”.
DB Migrate Utilities
Select this option to install the utilities for managing your database.
The database migration utility option comprises EAE DBMigrate Utility SQL 2017. The DBMigrate Utility version used must match the target SQL Server instance version. For example, if the SQL Server version is SQL Server 2017, then you must use DBMigrate for SQL 2017 Utility.
Note: If you are using an older version of SQL Server, you must back up the runtime database and then restore it into the target SQL Server instance, before running the DBMigrate Utility. For example, if the target is SQL Server 2017, then restore the EAE database backup into SQL Server 2017 before running DBMigrate for SQL Server 2017 Utility.
The Microsoft SQL Server Integration Service (SSIS) package is required for runtime data migration from one version to another. Therefore, for installing EAE DBMigrate Utility SQL 2017, you must install SQL Server 2017 Integration Service package. Refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143731.aspx for more information on installing SSIS.
In the Runtime Installation wizard, when you select Complete Installation, the installer verifies if SQL Server 2017 Integration Service Package is available and displays the appropriate warning message as follows
Scenario 1: When SSIS for SQL Server 2017 is not available, the installer displays a warning message to install SSIS for SQL Server 2017 before continuing with the installation of the DBMigrate sub-features.
Scenario 2: When SSIS for SQL Server 2017 is available, the installer displays a message to install the DBMigrate custom component in the SQL Server 2017 directory. Click OK to install all the sub-features; else click Cancel.
In the Runtime Installation wizard, when you select SQL Server 2017 DBMigrate, the installer displays a message to install SSIS for SQL Server 2017 if it is not available. If it is available, the installer displays a message to install a custom component in the SQL Server 2017 directory. Click OK to install the DB Migrate for SQL Server 2017; else, click Cancel.
