want to use when viewing online Help. This information is requested
only when you choose a Typical installation or are installing
Websense Manager separately.
 Installation directory: Enter the path to the directory where you
want to install the Websense components, or accept the default
location (
/opt/Websense). If this directory does not already exist,
the installer will create it.
 System requirements check: The installer compares the system
requirements for the installation you have selected with the resources
of the installation machine. If the machine has inadequate disk space
or memory, separate warnings are displayed.
• If the installation machine has insufficient disk space, the selected
components cannot be installed, and the installer will quit.
• If the installation machine has less than the recommended amount
of memory, the installation can continue. To ensure the best
performance of the components you are installing, you should
upgrade your machine’s memory to the recommended amount.
 Installation summary: A summary list appears, showing the

If you are using the online installer, the Download Manager copies the
appropriate installer files from the Websense website. Installation begins
automatically when the necessary files have been downloaded.
 The installer creates the /opt/Websense directory, and the
/opt/Websense/Manager directory if you installed Websense
Manager. It also sets up the necessary files, including
/etc/rc3.d/
S11WebsenseAdmin
, which enables Filtering Service to start
automatically each time the system starts.
