Installation¶
The installation steps are divided in the ones for the management server and the ones for the Output Engine server.
Hint - no Internet access
If the server on which you want to install the components does not have Internet access, use another server with Internet access for logging on to the SEAL Systems delivery platform and downloading the folder and packages. Then, copy the downloaded files to the server on which you want to install.
