Installing VAST Platform on Windows

Installation Guide : Installing VAST Platform : Installing VAST Platform on Windows

VAST Platform supports ARM processor in addition to the Intel processor. Starting with VAST Platform 2023 Installers specific to each processor are available. VAST Platform for the Intel processor comes with 64 bit and 32 bit product installers while VAST Platform for the ARM processor is only available as a 64-bit installation.

Before launching either one of these installers, you should review

• General Installation Preparations

• Windows Installation Preparation below

• File Locations

Choose either 32 bit or 64 bit product installer:

• VASTPlatform2024-13.0.1-win-intel-32bit.exe (32 bit Intel)

• VASTPlatform2024-13.0.1-win-intel-64bit.exe (64 bit Intel)

• VASTPlatform2024-13.0.1-win-arm-64bit.exe (64 bit ARM)

Choose the installation configuration

• Installing Standalone aka Typical

• Installing a Team Development Library and Admin Tools

• Installing a Team Development Client

If the standard install does not suit your needs, try customizing the installation.

Windows Installation Preparation

Instructions on the following pages assume that your Windows system is running with User Access Control (UAC) enabled (as recommended by Microsoft). Because the VAST Platform Installers can install files in directories that are shared by all users on a system, these installer programs must run in administrator mode.

Library Upgrade

The library update is not automatic. The user must use the Library Importer (importer.exe) to move code from the newly installed manager. This tool can merge new 13.0.1 code into your existing working manager. A log file will be placed into %temp%/importer.log. For more information, see the “Migration Tools” page in the Migration Guide)
