- System requirements and installation prerequisites
- Sample installation scenarios
  When installing AppScan® Source, it is important to follow the correct installation workflow. These topics guide you through the workflow involved in some sample installation scenarios.
  - Installing all required components on one machine
    In this scenario, all components are installed on one machine. When configuring component connections, localhost settings are applied.
  - Installing AppScan® Source components in a multi-machine environment
    AppScan® Source components can be installed on multiple machines. In this scenario, components are deployed in a multi-machine environment. HCL® AppScan License Server, AppScan Enterprise Server, AppScan Source client products, and the AppScan Source Database are all installed on different machines.
  - Installing AppScan® Source and integrating it with an existing AppScan® Enterprise Server
    In this scenario, AppScan® Source components are installed on one machine - and they are configured to connect to an existing AppScan Enterprise Server.
  - Installing AppScan® Source in standalone mode
    In this scenario, all components are installed on one machine without a connection to AppScan® Enterprise or the AppScan Database Service.
  - Loading the AppScan Source Docker image
    In this scenario, the AppScan® Source command line interface (CLI) Docker image is downloaded and loaded into your Linux environment.
  - AppScan® Enterprise configuration
    With new installations of AppScan® Source version 10.0.2 and newer, you must configure AppScan Enterprise if you want to work in connected mode. These tasks need to be performed once.
- Upgrading AppScan® Source
- Advanced installation and activation topics
  This section describes advanced installation options and activation procedures.
- AppScan® Source silent installers
  The AppScan® Source custom installation wizard is used for creating silent installers.
- Activating the software
- Removing AppScan® Source from your system
  You can remove AppScan® Source from the Windows™ Control Panel or with a Linux™ uninstall script. The AppScan Source uninstall does not remove or back up an installed Oracle database. Deleting the AppScan Source user from an Oracle instance is a manual database administrative task.

Loading the AppScan Source Docker image

In this scenario, the AppScan® Source command line interface (CLI) Docker image is downloaded and loaded into your Linux environment.

Containerized applications, including AppScan® Source, allow greater flexibility and efficiency. Once installed and configured, a testing environment can be created on-demand, and quickly, and scans can be run concurrently.

Note: Docker must be installed, and the daemon started and running with the current user added to the docker group.

To download and load the Docker image to your environment:

Download hcl_appscan_source_cli_10.0.8.x.tar.gz from the FlexNet Operations portal or HCL Harbor.
Load the Docker image:
docker load –i hcl_appscan_source_cli_10.0.8.x.tar.gz
Verify that the Docker image is loaded and available:
docker images
An image with the name hcl/appscan/source/cli:10.0.8.x should be listed.
