Installing the Aptify CM Tool

This topic describes how to install the Aptify Configuration Migration (CM) Tool on a server (source or destination) so users with trusted accounts in Aptify can access the system using a supported web browser.

Perform the following tasks before installing the Aptify CM Tool on the server where the Aptify Desktop client is also installed:

• Verify that the user has sufficient rights on the destination folder.
• Verify that the setup files are NOT read-only.
• Verify that the Aptify installation directory where the CM Tool is to be installed is NOT read-only.

Perform the following steps to install the CM Tool.

1. Copy and paste the CM Tool setup files to the Aptify machine.
2. Open the setup folder and click on the Setup.exe file to run the setup program.
3. In the Aptify CM Tool login screen, perform the following steps:
   1. In the Server field, enter the name of the server where the Aptify Desktop client is also installed.
   2. In the User Name and Password fields, enter the user account information for an account that has system administrator level permissions.
   3. Click OK.
       
4. In the Welcome screen, review the installation criteria and click Next.
5. In the Installation Options screen, perform the following steps:
   1. In the Aptify Directory field, enter the valid Aptify installation directory path where your Aptify Desktop client is installed.
   2. In the Shortcut Name field, enter a shortcut name for the application. This name is used to create a Windows Desktop shortcut for this application. The name should be unique, as if the name already exits, the setup program will not be able to create the Windows Desktop shortcut.
   3. Click Next.
       
6. In the Run Installation screen, click Finish to start the installation. Installation will take several minutes.
7. When the confirmation message is displayed after the completion of successful install, proceed to the next procedure.
