MicroStrategy ONE

Configuration Wizard Prerequisites

Before you begin using the Configuration Wizard you should review and complete the following requirements:

  • Install the necessary MicroStrategy products. You should have at least MicroStrategy Developer and MicroStrategy Intelligence Server installed. For information on how to install MicroStrategy on Windows, see Installing MicroStrategy on Windows. For information on how to install MicroStrategy on other operating systems, see Installing MicroStrategy on Linux.
  • Have access to an empty database location certified to house the metadata. This includes creating DSNs for your databases (see Communicating with Databases). For a list of certified metadata platforms, see the MicroStrategy Readme.
  • In a Linux environment, the Configuration Wizard must be able to communicate with Intelligence Server over TCP/IP network protocol. To achieve this, the hosts file in the /etc directory must include one entry identifying the local host in the form:

    IP-address local-machine-name

    For example, 123.4.5.6 FakeISmachine. Modifying the hosts file may require an account with root privileges.

  • MicroStrategy products must be configured on the machine on which they are installed. You cannot configure them remotely.
