Beginning the Installation
How you install Progress depends on what products, components, and subcomponents you choose to install. You can tailor your Progress installation so that only those products and components essential to your business operation are installed. See your specific product documentation for information about which mandatory components you must install and where to install them.
For example, if you want to install Progress/400 or the MS SQL Server, ORACLE, or ODBC DataServer products, you must choose either the Complete installation option or the Custom installation option. If you choose the Custom option, you then select specific DataServer clients from the components list.
As you proceed through the installation, you will specify one of the installation options described in Table 2–2.
