Installation of Smart Office

It all depends on how many users you have, how much memory/processor power the PunchOut application requires. LCM does not require much and is not used at all in runtimem it is only used for installation, configuration and some monitoring. The LSO server is more or less only used when starting LSO and when shuting it down, all communications goes directly to the backends from the client (S3 portal, M3 UI Adapter, etc). If having 500+ users I would install it on a separate server. Having more then 500+ concurrent users may always create peaks that affects not only the LSO application but also all other applications running on the same server.

Thanks.  For now I am just working on an install in our test environment and usage on any of our test servers is very low.  As for the eventual prod install, I'll cross that bridge when I get a feel for the products in test.

Hi,  I am spec'ing out installing LSO in our environment.  Can you give me your experiance and did you install it or get a certified consultant?  Timings on the install and testing.  What were your sticky points and lessoned learned?  We run S3 apps on a AIX enviornment.  User issues when rolled out.  Any guideance is appriciated.

Do you use S3 apps only?   Do you have pointers for the installation and time line estimates would be great.  Any issues that I need to watch for.  You have GRID, LSO, LCM on one windows server?

it took 3 days for the first install, my subsequent installs took less than a day. The biggest issues - wtach out for typos. Make sure you have 32 and 64 bit of java installed on 64 bit server. Get your Certificate (this took many weeks to resolve with our CA vendor).
