  - Upgrading to a clustered listener environment
    Follow these instructions if you want to upgrade your existing single-listener configuration for Unica Campaign to a clustered listener configuration. A listener cluster is a set of two or more listeners that act as a unit to provide load balancing and high availability. Unica Campaign listener clusters are Active-Active; meaning each node serves requests using the load-balanced approach. Each Unica Campaign listener provides an interface between front-end clients (such as the Unica Campaign web application) and back-end analytical server processes.

How the installers work

Use the Unica installer with the Optimize installers when you install Optimize.

The Unica suite installer starts the individual product installers during the installation process.

Use the following guidelines to install Optimize.

Make sure that the Unica installer and the Optimize installer are in the same directory on the server where you want to install Optimize. When multiple versions of the Optimize installer are present in the directory with the Unica installer, the Unica installer shows the latest version of Optimize on the HCL Unica Products screen in the installation wizard.
If you are planning to install a patch immediately after you install Optimize and Optimize, make sure that the patch installer is in the same directory as that of the Unica and the Optimize installer.

Unica is installed in one of the following directories by default:

/opt/HCL/Unica (for UNIX™)
C:\HCL\Unica (for Windows™)

Unica products are installed by default in a subdirectory of the HCL_home directory. For example, Unica Platform is installed in the HCL_Unica_home/Platform directory.

Optimize is installed in the HCL_Unica_home/Campaign directory by default.
