Server installers

Windows Installer properties for each of the Tachyon server installers.

Warning

Tachyon Setup is the only supported method of installing, upgrading, and patching a Tachyon server.

Installation using standalone msi or msp files is not supported unless advised by 1E, which may be necessary for complex installations, using non-interactive (quiet/silent) command lines, and may require further post-install configuration steps.

Tachyon Setup installation order

When installing all components on a single server, Tachyon Setup installs them in the following order:

  1. Tachyon Server - TachyonServer.msi

  2. 1E Catalog - 1ECatalog.msi

  3. SLA Platform - SLA.Platform.Installer.msi

  4. SLA Business Intelligence - SLA.BI.Installer.msi (optional but required for Patch Success)

  5. Nomad - ContentDistribution.msi (optional but required for Nomad)

  6. AppClarity - AppClarity.msi

  7. Application Migration - ApplicationMigration.msi

The installer properties for these MSI are provided in the following pages, including some notes on how the setup uses the properties.

These Product Packs are required to support various features, for more detail please refer to Tachyon Product Packs reference. If your license permits, you can use additional Product Packs available from 1E Exchange to meet specific use cases.

Classic Product Packs

Contain instructions, for use in Explorer and other applications.

They can be uploaded using the Tachyon Product Pack Deployment Tool, or using Settings→Instructions→Instruction sets page in the Tachyon portal.

Integrated Product Packs

Contain policies, rules and fragments for use by Guaranteed State, and may also include instructions.

They can only be uploaded using the Tachyon Product Pack Deployment Tool.

Tip

The Tachyon Product Pack Deployment Tool can be started independently or at the end of the Tachyon Setup process via the Post-installation checks screen, where the screen contains a link that launches the tool. The Tachyon Setup method of starting the tool is recommended because Tachyon Setup ensures you have the correct permissions to upload the Product Packs.
