Microsoft Windows installation prerequisites

Before you install Design Server on Microsoft Windows, install Mongo DB Server version 4.0.5 (or higher) on the same computer. By default, Design Server and MongoDB server is expected to run on the same computer.

If you want Design Server and MongoDB Server to run on different computers, you must configure the Design Server installation configuration settings. To change the MongoDB server host and port configuration settings, edit the hip-server-env.bat file, in the C:\HCL\Link_<version_number>\DesignServer\ location, to match your environment.
