Installation Scenarios
Where are you in your adoption of Liquibase Business?	Evaluation: Evaluation of Liquibase Business on the way to automation
	Installation for a User - install on a system (typically Windows) that an individual will use to define release pipelines and move database changes through them. Typically used in contexts where some of the following conditions are true: Smaller or less-demanding volumes of changes Manual operations May or may not be synchronized with application changes Has access to the internet - during installation of Liquibase Business, can use an Update Site Repository
	Automation System: Testing and usage of Liquibase Business in an automation environment
	Installation for an Automation System - install on a system (typically Linux). An automation system (Jenkins or other) runs scripts to perform operations. Typically used in contexts where some of the following conditions are true: Automated or scheduled operations, although manual operations may also be available. Synchronized with application changes - the automation system controls both. Does not have access to the internet - during installation of Liquibase Business, must use a local resource - Requires placement of a Liquibase Business Composite Repository.
	Expansion: Large-scale expansion of Liquibase Business Usage
	Automated Installation of Liquibase Business - Use an automation system to install Liquibase Business on many systems (either user installations or automation installations). Delivers Liquibase Business for either or both: Multiple individual users Multiple automation systems
What You Need from Datical Before Starting
You need to set up accounts on Datical web sites	Get access to these sites: Thru access to software and PDFs - software.datical.com Update Site for drivers, plugins, and updates - http://update.datical.com/latest/thirdparty and http://update.datical.com/latest/gui See Activating Your Datical Accounts.
Database clients	Install the database client for each database type you will manage from the system where you install Liquibase Business. Make sure the database client is on the PATH Oracle Database Client - No installation necessary - Datical DB installs Oracle instance client DB2 Database Client (db2) - Download "IBM Data Server Runtime Client" Postgres EDB Clients (edbplus) - No installation necessary - Datical DB installs EDBPlus client PostgreSQL Clients (psql) - PostgreSQL downloads SQL Server Clients (sqlcmd) - Need both ODBC Driver and Command Line Utilities
Installation Resources
Datical provides the following resources for installation.	All Software The Datical Electronic Software Distribution site (software.datical.com) contains installation files and PDF documentation files for each release. Windows executable installation images (.exe) Linux executable installation images (.jar) Composite installation repository (all installation files in a zip file) Repositories Repositories are used to install or update Liquibase Business. Update Site Repository: update.datical.com - Available as a repository to be used to perform installation and updates. For updates: Once Liquibase Business is set up to use it, you can use a Check for Updates feature to determine when a new version is available.
What You Install
Liquibase Business Components	Liquibase Business Clients - The Liquibase Business application contains GUI and CLI clients. Database Drivers (JDBC) - used to connect to managed databases. SCM Plug-ins - allow you to interact with your source control management system through the Liquibase Business GUI The capability is optional. You can also work with SCMs directly.
What Directories are Created on a System
Installation directory Project Workspace directory	Installation Directory - DaticalDB
	This directory contains all executables and support files. Clients (GUI and CLI) JDBC Drivers for the database types you manage SCM Plug-ins for the Source Control Management system you use (typically the same one used by your application development organization) Eclipse infrastructure files Location: You can choose the installation directory during installation. The default locations are the following directories: Windows - `C:\Users\<username>\DaticalDB` Linux - `<home-directory>/DaticalDB`
	Project Workspace directory - datical
	The project workspace contains files for each project you create in Liquibase Business. Note The workspace directory is not removed or changed when you upgrade or re-install Liquibase Business When you create a project, the project definition is stored in the workspace. As you perform operations on the project (package, forecast, deploy, rollback), files in the workspace are created, updated, moved, and removed. Location: This is a fixed location. Windows - `C:\Users\<username>\datical` Linux - `/<home-directory>/datical`

Sample Installation Steps

The actual steps vary depending on your choice of system, installation tool (GUI or CLI), and installation repository (Update Site repository or Composite Repository).

These samples give you a quick overview of the steps involved in the sample cases.

Use Case: Individual User

Windows is the most common platform for individual users.

The following scenario is for a user system that has access to the internet (Update Site Repository)

Download the Liquibase Business installer for Windows (.exe)
Run the GUI installation to install the clients (GUI and CLI)
Start the GUI.
Configure the GUI to add Update Site repositories
Install the JDBC drivers
Install the SCM plugins (optional)

Use Case: Automation System

Linux is the most common platform for use by automation systems. Typically hosts that are part of automated processes do not have access to the internet.

From a host that has access to the internet, download the Liquibase Business composite repository, which contains installation files for the Liquibase Business clients and JDBC drivers.
Move the composite repository to the host where you want Liquibase Business to run.
Run the installation from the command line.
Test the installation using the CLI
Create scripts for the automation system that call Liquibase Business commands
