Copy the entire installation from the product media to a local drive and
create the deployment from that location.
Before you create the deployment, exit all applications and turn off
anti-virus programs.
How do I select a license type? What is the
difference between a stand-alone license and
a network license?
Choose the type of installation to deploy based on the type of software license
you purchased: stand-alone license or network license.
A product with a stand-alone license is registered and activated for an individual
computer. While your software can be installed on multiple computers in
your facility, a stand-alone license allows only one AutoCAD Architecture to
be operational. If you need to run AutoCAD Architecture on more computers,
you need to either purchase more stand-alone licenses or convert to using
network licenses.
With network licenses, AutoCAD Architecture can be installed and run on
multiple computers, up to the maximum number of licenses you've purchased.
The Network License Manager utility "checks out" licenses until they are all
in use. No additional computers can run the program until a license is "checked
in."
For more information, see the Network Administrator's Guide.
How can I choose the language in which the
Installer instructions are presented?
If other languages are available, you can choose the language in which Installer
instructions are presented from the Installation instructions drop-down list on
the Installer Launch page. Note that this will also set the language for your
software, although later you can change that by selecting another language
from the Product Language drop-down list on the Install > Configure & Begin
Installation page of the Installer.
