Evaluate Communications Suite
From MsgServerDocWiki
How can I evaluate Communications Suite?
For people interested in taking a test drive of a complete Communications Suite configuration (Java ES 2005Q4 version; Communications Suite 5 not yet available) on Solaris x86 (either on a physical x86/x64 box that can be re-installed or on a VMWare VM), there is a method where you can perform a single install and have both Solaris x86 and the entire Communications Suite pre-configured without having to pour through all the various install docs--all with only about five minutes of your attention. You are asked less than 10 questions before everything is up and operational. There are also slightly more complex options if you want to install it in a multi-tier configuration versus a single system.
The components installed are:
- Solaris OS 10 (update 2)
- Sun Java System Web Server
- Sun Java System Directory Server
- Sun Java System Access Manager
- Sun Java System Calendar Server
- Sun Java System Messaging Server
- Sun Java System Instant Messaging
- Sun Java Communications Express
- Sun Java System Delegated Administrator
For the latest version of Communications Suite (version 5), we provide a single-host installation guide for both the Solaris and Redhat Linux operating systems. These guides provide step-by-step instructions on how to get all of the Communications Suite components up and running on a single system for evaluation purposes. You can find these guides at:
