Installation and Configuration Overview
One of your deployment decisions is which subsystems you will install, how many
of each type of subsystem you will configure, and on which hosts they will be
installed. Once you decide this, you install CMS on each host you will be using,
install each subsystem that will be run on that host, and then configure each of the
subsystems on each host.
Installation and Configuration Process
The following outlines the process for installing, setting up, and configuring CMS:
Run the installation program to install Administration Server, Directory
1.
Server, and CMS on each host system that will be part of your deployment. See
"Installing CMS" on page 77 for complete instructions on installing CMS.
Configure each subsystem that will be running on each host. CMS provides an
2.
installation wizard for configuring an instance of each of the subsystems.
Complete instructions for configuring each of the subsystems can be found at
the following locations:
Get the first agent certificate for the subsystem. See "Agent Certificates," on
3.
page 337" for complete instructions.
Configure the instance for the particular needs of your PKI. For complete
4.
details on configuring each of the subsystems, see the chapter that describes
that subsystem:
