2. Find the Enterprise Console installer that you downloaded earlier.
3. Double-click the installer.
4. When you are prompted, click Install.
The installation files are copied to the computer and a wizard starts.
5. The wizard guides you through installation. You should do as follows: a) Accept the defaults wherever possible.
b) On the Components Selection page, ensure that all the components are selected.
c) On the System Property Checks page, review the system check results and take action if necessary. For more information about the system check results, go to http://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/knowledgebase/113945.aspx
.
d) On the Database Details page, enter the details of the database account you created in
Database account (section 6.1).
e) On the Sophos Update Manager Credentials page, enter the details of the Update Manager account you created in
Update Manager account (section 6.2).
f) On the Manage Encryption page, click Manage Encryption, if you want to use Enterprise
Console to manage encryption.
Note: If you click Do not manage encryption or if you have SafeGuard Enterprise installed on this computer, there are no further installation options. Go straight to step 6.
g) On the Sophos Encryption page, click New installations if you do not have an earlier version of Sophos Disk Encryption installed on the network. You are prompted for the password for the certificates backup store. Make a note of the password.
6. When installation is complete, you may be prompted to restart. Click Yes or Finish.
Important: The Sophos Auditing database, SophosSecurity, must be present and running side by side with the other Enterprise Console databases, even if you don't intend to use the Sophos
Auditing feature. This is because the database is used for enhanced access control as well as for logging audit events.
