This README describes how to install the HP Database Manager (HPDM) client software. For information about new and changed features in HPDM, see the README for the corresponding major release or service pack. Checking Version Compatibility Before installing the client product: • • Note that it is possible to install multiple Windows-client drivers and tools, including HPDM, by using one installer package. For more information, see the README for the HP Neoview Windows Client Package.
NOTE: The key difference between the .msi and .exe files is that only the .exe file checks for the required .NET 3.5 runtime: • If you use HPDatabaseManagerInstaller.msi directly, you must confirm .NET and other prerequisite software is already installed on the client workstation. • If you use setup.exe and if the .NET runtime is not present, the installer downloads the runtime from the Microsoft Web site before proceeding with the HPDM installation.
NOTE: Note these considerations: • If you are installing HPDM on Windows Vista and you are logged on as a non-administrator, you need to install the files in a non-default location (for example, “C:\user\your_logon_name\HP Database Manager.” Vista does not allow non-administrators to install files into the “C:\Program Files” folder.
