Also see, Backup guidelines in Preparing to install IBM Rational Rose. v If you have Rational products on your system from a previous release, this installation process uninstalls them. Back up any local files and data related to those versions. v Before you begin the installation, stop all applications. v Turn off all virus protection software. These programs often run in the background and interfere with the performance of the installation application because the virus protection checks each file that is installed. v If you do not have the correct version of Windows Installer software on your computer, the Setup wizard installs it. If you cancel the installation, the updated version of Windows Installer is not removed. In some cases, you might have to restart the computer. v The Setup wizard uses C:\Program Files\Rational as the default installation directory. v The Setup wizard requires that you install all IBM Rational products in the same directory. If you already have Rational products installed on the computer, the Setup wizard installs additional Rational products in the same directory. v The Setup wizard installs Microsoft® Core Components and some additional files on the same drive as the operating system (often drive C), even if you have specified an alternate drive for installation. These files can require 5 to 15 MB of temporary disk space on your hard disk. © Copyright IBM Corp. 1993, 2006 19

Before
you
start
the
Rational
Setup
wizard
The
following
general
requirements
are
necessary
to
run
the
Rational
Setup
wizard
on
your
system.
v
Log
in
as
a
user
with
administrator
privileges.
v
Verify
that
your
system
meets
the
minimum
requirements
and
is
running
on
the
correct
operating
system,
see
the
IBM
Rational
Rose
Release
Notes.
v
Make
available
a
backup
copy
of
your
registry
and
system
directories.
Also
see,
Backup
guidelines
in
Preparing
to
install
IBM
Rational
Rose.
v
If
you
have
Rational
products
on
your
system
from
a
previous
release,
this
installation
process
uninstalls
them.
Back
up
any
local
files
and
data
related
to
those
versions.
v
Before
you
begin
the
installation,
stop
all
applications.
v
Turn
off
all
virus
protection
software.
These
programs
often
run
in
the
background
and
interfere
with
the
performance
of
the
installation
application
because
the
virus
protection
checks
each
file
that
is
installed.
v
If
you
do
not
have
the
correct
version
of
Windows
Installer
software
on
your
computer,
the
Setup
wizard
installs
it.
If
you
cancel
the
installation,
the
updated
version
of
Windows
Installer
is
not
removed.
In
some
cases,
you
might
have
to
restart
the
computer.
v
The
Setup
wizard
uses
C:\Program
Files\Rational
as
the
default
installation
directory.
v
The
Setup
wizard
requires
that
you
install
all
IBM
Rational
products
in
the
same
directory.
If
you
already
have
Rational
products
installed
on
the
computer,
the
Setup
wizard
installs
additional
Rational
products
in
the
same
directory.
v
The
Setup
wizard
installs
Microsoft
®
Core
Components
and
some
additional
files
on
the
same
drive
as
the
operating
system
(often
drive
C),
even
if
you
have
specified
an
alternate
drive
for
installation.
These
files
can
require
5
to
15
MB
of
temporary
disk
space
on
your
hard
disk.
