Installation Scenarios
This section will help you select the most appropriate scenario to install
ServerProtect on your network(s). The following scenarios focus on Local Area
Networks (LANs), although it is also possible to manage ServerProtect across Wide
Area Networks (WANs) such as, corporate intranets, using TCP/IP. See Managing
ServerProtect Across a Wide Area Network on page 2-8.
The installation scenarios for installing ServerProtect are:
• A Windows Server 2003/2000/NT Environment
• A NetWare Environment
• A Mixed Environment—Windows Server 2003/2000/NT and NetWare
Specifying Your Installation Environment
Trend Micro ServerProtect supports both Windows Server 2003/2000/NT
servers/workstations and Novell NetWare servers. Each installation scenario requires
following different procedures.
If you are installing ServerProtect on your network for the first time, you must set the
destination server as an Information Server, then configure the Normal Servers to
join it. An Information Server must have at least one ServerProtect domain to
manage its Normal Servers. See ServerProtect Domains on page 1-7.
Note: If you have many servers concentrated in different geographical locations, set up an
Information Server (IS) in each location. See
Information Server Tips on page 1-5
for Information Server tips.
