Jetico Central Manager Wizard

Jetico Central Manager Wizard provides an easy way to perform initial configuration of Jetico Central Manager Database. The Wizard explains every step of the configuration in a separate dialog window.

There are five steps to configure the software:

1. Select folder on local or remote computer for installation of Jetico Central Manager Database. Please keep in mind the following considerations when you select folder for the Database installation:
   1. Jetico Central Manager Database is supported by special service. So the program will install the service on the computer where the Database is located. Confirm that installation of the service is allowed on the computer.
   2. Computer with the Database should be powered on while remote client workstations may need to contact it.

2. Enter credentials of administrator account valid on the computer where the Jetico Central Manager Database is going to be installed.

   If you have Windows network with Domain Controller, enter credentials of domain administrator. Otherwise enter username and password of administrator of the computer where Jetico Central Manager Database is going to be installed.

3. Enter TCP/IP port number for network communication between clients and Jetico Central Manager server computers. Please be sure that TCP/IP port number you enter is not blocked by firewall software installed on computers in the enterprise network.

4. Initialize password of Supervisor of Jetico Central Manager Database.

   Note that there are two kinds of persons in Jetico Central Manager who can control the software: Supervisor and Administrator.

   Supervisor has all rights to administrate the Database and can delegate the rights to another person - Administrator.

   Administrator also has full rights to manage the Database, but Supervisor can change or remove the Administrator Account at any time.

5. Select and download Jetico client software (i.e., BCWipe, BestCrypt Container Encryption, BestCrypt Volume Encryption).

   Jetico Central Manager can support any combination of the client software. For example, some organizations may decide only use BCWipe, while others might use BestCrypt Container Encryption with BestCrypt Volume Encryption or perhaps BestCrypt Volume Encryption and BCWipe. It is also possible to initially start using Jetico Central Manager with just one client software (such as BCWipe) and then extend licensing to include BestCrypt Container Encryption.

   Choosing the set of client software supported by Jetico Central Manager is done in the configuration Wizard. Yet it is also possible to do the same at any later time by running a List of Supported Client Software command from Software menu in Jetico Central Manager Console.




Note:

Before installation of the Jetico Central Manager Database please check the network settings as written in the Pre-deployment Steps article. The instructions are suitable for Database installation as well as for Jetico client software deployment.
