Tips and Features for Administrators
Deploying a PAM Release
As Customer Administrator, you can re-deploy a PAM release on a backup PAP Unit by
running the PAM Installation package x.y.z. msi (x.y.z being the PAM version e.g. 2.1.9 )
file.
Important:
This procedure should only be used to re-deploy a current PAM Release on a backup PAP
Unit. PAM software can only be updated by authorized Customer Service Engineers.
To install a PAM Release:
1. From the local PAP unit console, power down all server domains and close the current
PAM session.
2. From the default PAM Installation directory, double click the .msi file to launch the PAM
Installation InstallShield Wizard.
3. Select Complete to install all program features and to accept the default path for the
installation folder:
<WinDrive>:\Program Files\BULL\PAM\installation\<Release Version>
(e.g. d:\Program Files\BULL\PAM\installation\ 2.1.9 ).
or, select Custom to select program features and to define a path for the installation
folder.

Note:
This path is the repository for activation files. NEVER delete this folder after activation as it is
required to repair and re-activate the release.
4. Click Install to begin setup.
5. Select the Launch PAM Activation utility checkbox and click Finish. The PAM Activation
utility is automatically launched.
The PAM Activation icon is installed on the PAP unit desktop and the Platform
Administration and Maintenance program group, giving access to the PAM Activation and
PAP Configuration executable files, is installed in the Program Files directory.
