Create distribution media

To ensure that customers can install DataBlade® modules and other HCL OneDB™ products by using common instructions, the product you distribute must conform to the HCL OneDB DataBlade module installation standard. BladePack creates an interactive installation that ensures a consistent user interface.

To distribute multiple products with their own installations on a CD-ROM or tape, rename the cdrom directory to the name of the DataBlade module before you copy the directory and its contents to the media or into the archive file.

For example, to install the Circle DataBlade module from CD-ROM, the installer mounts the CD-ROM, changes to the circle subdirectory, and executes the setup program.
Important : Put the Setup.exe program in a short path. Due to a Windows™ limitation, if the path for Setup.exe is too long, it fails to execute.
