Installation Notes
Before you begin the installation, read the following notes:
• Close all open or active programs. Do not run other programs during the installation process.
• While setting up High Availability (HA) and Disaster Recovery (DR) environment in LMS server,
ensure to set them prior to LMS installation.
• By default, SSL is not enabled on LMS Server.
• While launching LMS, network inconsistencies might cause installation errors if you are installing
from a remote mount point.
• If your LMS Server is integrated with any Network Management System (NMS) in your network
using the Integration Utility, you must perform the integration whenever you enable or disable SSL
in the LMS Server. You must do this to update the application registration in the NMS.
For help with NMS integration, see the User Guide for Integration Utility 1.10. You can find this
document on Cisco.com, in both HTML and PDF form.
