Preparing to install
Designing a deployment
A Flash Media Server deployment can be as simple as one computer or as complex as multiple clusters of edge servers
and origin servers with authentication and content storage performed on separate computers. For information about
designing a deployment, see the
Technical Overview
.
You must run the installer on each computer on which you want to run Flash Media Server. After running the
installer, you can configure the server to run as an origin server or an edge server.
License files and serial numbers
Before running the installer, verify that you have a license file or a serial number. You can either use a license file or
a serial number; you can’t use both.

serial key
have the same meaning.
If you have a serial number, you’ll be asked to enter it during installation. If you have a license (LIC) file, after running
the installer, place it in the
RootInstall
/licenses folder and restart the server.
If you don’t enter a serial number during installation, Flash Media Development Server installs. You can enter a serial
number after installation to upgrade to Flash Media Streaming Server or Flash Media Interactive Server. You can
enter a serial number in the fms.ini file (located in the
RootInstall
/conf folder), in the Administration Console, or
run the installer and choose to update the serial number.
If you require different or additional serial numbers or license files, contact
