Deploying FileMaker Server across multiple machines 37
Installing on multiple machines
For a multiple-machine deployment, you install FileMaker Server software on each machine. After the software is
installed on all of the machines, you use the Deployment assistant on the master machine to configure your settings
and specify which machines run which components. To install on only one machine, see
chapter 1, “Installation
quick start.”
Important Install the FileMaker Server software on the worker machines first and then on the master machine.
Before you begin
Do the following before installing FileMaker Server on multiple machines:
1 To move an existing installation of FileMaker Server to FileMaker Server 9, see chapter 5, “Upgrading or
moving an existing installation.”
1 Locate your license key. See “About the license key” on page 12.
1 To enable web publishing, ensure that the web server is enabled and set up on the worker machine that has the
web server. See
chapter 6, “Setting up the web server.”
