Chapter 1: Preparing for Installation

1.1 Preparing for Installation

Prior to installing Unoverica Message Transport, you must verify that your NetWare server meets some minimum system requirements needed by Unoverica Message Transport.

There are two sets of system requirements which must be verified prior to installing Unoverica Message Transport. These requirements are:

Sufficient versions of operating system software and protocols, including mandatory patches and updates. For more information about the required versions of NetWare and related system services, refer to section 1.2 Minimum Software Requirements.
Sufficient disk space and memory for the Unoverica Message Transport programs to run and store mail. For more information about these requirements, refer to section 1.3 Minimum Disk and Memory Requirements.

NOTE: Some of the required modifications listed in this chapter will require that you restart the server. Do not begin the installation process or apply any system updates until you are able to restart the server without interrupting user sessions or critical system functions.

WARNING: If the NetWare server you wish to use for Unoverica Message Transport does not meet the minimum system requirements specified in this chapter, you will encounter problems during the installation or operation of Unoverica Message Transport. These problems may be minor annoyances, a lack of expected functionality (such as mail messages not getting delivered successfully), or total system failure resulting in lost data.

STEP: To continue to the next step in the verification process, go to section 1.2 Minimum Software Requirements.
