Last week I started with the installation of my own Opalis test environment. Based on the CEP information and Technet I was able to install my own Test Environment. This post contains only the installation of the core server components of Opalis. In Part 2 I will describe the installation of the operator console. I will start with the system Prerequisites for Opalis Integration Server:
| Component | Minimum Requirement Technet | What I used |
| Processor | 2.1 GHz dual-core Intel Xeon 3000 series or equivalent | 1 Ghz Pentium III Xeon (Hyper-V) |
| Memory | 2GB | 1GB (Hyper-V) |
| Harddisk | Managament Server: 100MB Operator Console: 200MB Action Server: 50MB |
20GB OS Disk (Hyper-V) 40GB Data Disk(Hyper-V) |
| Operating System | Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 or 2 (32-bit) | Windows 2003 R2 Standard SP2 |
| Additional Software | Windows Installer 3.1 .msi Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server 2008 Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, Internet Explorer 8 (Internet Explorer 7 compatibility mode), or Mozilla Firefox 3 JavaScript must be enabled in the browser. |
Windows Installer 3.1 .msi Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server 2008 Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, Internet Explorer 8 (Internet Explorer 7 compatibility mode), or Mozilla Firefox 3 JavaScript must be enabled in the browser. |
As said earlier installing the Prerequisites are not covered by this post. So in my own test environment I have a dedicated SQL 2008 SP1 server for the database. For the Opalis Server I installed the above server with the prerequisites. The first step is to download all the necessary software. See the table below:
