Creating a Custom Installation
A custom installation of Point-of-Sale can use one of several approaches:
• Install Point-of-Sale using the install script on a reference machine, and copy the resulting installation
to other machines.
- With this method, you can change the configuration settings of the installation as described in
Chapter 2, “Configuration,” until the installation works as desired, then propagate those
configurations to other machines.
- You can copy just the installation directory to a new machine, or if the hardware is sufficiently
similar, you can copy the entire hard drive image to an machine. Copying the entire hard drive
retains the JavaPOS installation as well as any other customizations.
- You must change the WorkstationID value for the target machines to a unique number. This value
can be found in
<installdirectory>\pos\config\application.properties .
• Create a custom installation script which allows for various hardware options but specifies the
software choices your company has chosen.
Note: By default, installation of a register requires certain IBM Install Set parameters to have specific
values:
• Hard Total must be Off.
• Ingenico must be On.
