Perform HCL OneDB installation and create an instance on Windows
The first task in the embeddability tutorial is to complete an installation and create the HCL OneDB™ instance.
Install HCL OneDB on the template computer to prepare the master copy for later deployment. A custom installation is recommended because you can choose which features to install. This is one good way to reduce the footprint of HCL OneDB. Some features are mutually dependent and must be installed with one another. The good news is that the installation application manages these interdependencies.
The embeddability tutorial for Windows™ is based on the following installation scenario:
- HCL OneDB 1.0.0.0 is installed in the default directory C:\Program Files\IBM\Informix
- An instance with the name
demo_on
is created
demo_on
are assumptions
made for the tutorial. You can install HCL
OneDB in
a directory of your choice and create an instance with the name of
your choice.
