Information: Choosing the Server Computer

Docsvault does not need any special server grade computer if you are a small group of 5 - 15 users. You can designate any PC with good processor, ample Memory (512 MB) and enough available hard drive space for storing files imported in Docsvault.

 

 

 

Security:

Docsvault installation requires that the installer have administrator permission to create folders and files and make necessary registry entries.

 

 

 

 

Installing Docsvault Server

 

Initiate Installation Wizard

 

Run the installation file Docsvault_SB_Server.msi and follow the on screen instructions.

 

On the License Agreement page, read the license agreement and if you accept the license terms click on I Accept, and then click the Next button.

 

 

Select Installation Folder

 

Installation folder contains the program files for Docsvault Server. By default the installer will choose 'C:\Program files\Docsvault SB\ Server\'. You have the option of changing the location of program folder by clicking on the Browse button. It is recommended that you keep the default path as this folder will contain only the program files, not the data files.

 

Click on Next button to go to the 'Confirm Installation' window.

 

 

Select Data Folder

 

During the installation progress, you will be asked to select a Data Folder that will store all documents imported in Docsvault and other related meta data. Select a drive that has plenty of free space available as this folder will grow in size as more and more documents are imported in the future.

 

 

Warning:

Do not select a network drive or shared folder for the Data Folder. The Data Folder should reside on a drive that is physically connected to your computer.

 

 

 

Close Installation Wizard

 

On completion click the Close button. You can now launch the Docsvault Server Manager from the desktop icon.

 

 

 

 

 

Installing Docsvault Client

 

 

Note:

You are now ready to install the client software on all the machines that would be used to access the central documents repository on the server. Run the Docsvault Client installation file on each of the client workstations.

 

 

 

Initiate Installation Wizard

 

For each workstation installation run the Docsvault_SB_Client.msi and follow the on screen instructions.

 

 

Select Installation Folder

 

Installation folder contains the program files for Docsvault. The install program will create a default program folder 'C:\Program files\Docsvault SB\Client\'. You can change the location if you wish. However we recommend that you accept the default names and structures provided during installation.

 

Click on Next button to go to the 'Confirm Installation' window.

 

 

Close Installation Wizard

 

On completion click Close button.
