Using the MSI installer package to install the eDiscovery client

Typically, you distribute the eDiscovery client software by directing users to a central location from which they can run the MSI installer package. By default, the installer package for the eDiscovery client software performs a per-user installation of the software. This type of installation does not permit other users of the computer to run the application. However, if you have administration privileges on the computer and want to permit all users to run the application, you can perform a per-machine installation.

To install the eDiscovery client software

  1. Ensure that the configuration file AcceleratorClient.Exe.Config file is in the installation folder for the eDiscovery client software.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • To perform a per-user installation, start the eDiscovery installer package (Arctera Enterprise Vault eDiscovery Client.msi).

    • To perform a per-machine installation, open a Command Prompt window and then type the following:

      msiexec /I "path_to/Arctera Enterprise Vault eDiscovery Client.msi" TARGETDIR="install_path" ALLUSERS=1

      Where:

      path_to

      Specifies the path to the .msi file.

      install_path

      Specifies the path to the folder in which to install the client software.

      For example, you might type the following:

      msiexec /I "D:\Arctera Enterprise Vault eDiscovery Client.msi" TARGETDIR="C:\Program Files (x86)\" ALLUSERS=1

      Caution:

      If User Account Control (UAC) is enabled on your computer, you must open the Command Prompt window with administrator privileges.

  3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
  4. After you have installed the client software, set the access permissions on the installation folder to prevent unauthorized users from tampering with it - for example, by placing malicious files in the folder. Only authorized users should have Modify and Write permissions on this folder.
