Installation
Before continuing with installation, you may want to review the server architecture documentation and the requirements documentation.
Installation Components
There are several installation components which will need to be installed. As the installer, you will need to decide which services you wish to put on the same servers after reading the server architecture documentation. You will need a web server running the ASP.net web application. You will also need a server running Microsoft SQL and a server running Solr/Lucene. It will often make sense to run these on the same server, along with the SobekCM Builder/Bulk Loader software. For very large libraries with alot of usage, you may also consider having a caching service to ease the memory use and general strain on the web server.
It is best to at least install the MS SQL Server software first. Then, you can skip ahead to installing the web application followed by the builder/bulk loader. The Solr/Lucene and optional caching server can be installed at any time during this process. The notes below will guide you through the installation process for each of the components:
