Use these instructions to install the Sybase RAP core components. RAP core components include RAPCache and VLDB servers, data models, scripts, and support tools. There are two installation options: a typical install and custom install.
A typical install creates a main level directory as specified by the user (for example, /RAP30), and installs RAPCache, VLDBServer, and other components into separate subdirectories on a single machine.
A custom install allows you to choose the components you want to install and where you want to install them. Like a typical install, a custom install creates a common directory structure and installs the appropriate components into separate subdirectories on one or more target machines.
You must run the install for each RAPCache server you want to install. If you intend to deploy Sybase RAP in a High Availability (HA) environment, or install optional components on different machines, you must run the installer multiple times.
