Part 1-Syncfusion Dashboard Server Installation

Get the Installation Package and Detailed Dashboard Platform Installation Steps

Get the Installation Package

This instruction assumes you are installing to a server on-premise or that you have already achieved access to the cloud server.

You will need to contact Alemba Support, your Account Manager, or Alemba Professional Services to get the SyncfusionDeployment pack files.

  1. Download the package provided to the SF application server to the Downloads Folder.

  2. Go to the Downloads folder

  3. Right-click on the SyncFusionDeploymentxxx.zip package and click Properties.

The properties Dialog box should appear

  1. On the Properties dialog box, select the Unblock tick box

  2. Click Apply

  3. Click OK, to close the Dialog box

  4. Right-click the SyncFusionDeploymentxxx.zip file

  5. Click Extract

  6. Extract the folder to the C:\ drive location.

For the next steps to be easier/less complex, extract to the root of C:\ and remove any other pre-filled file location in the field.

  1. Once the Extraction window closes, go to the Start Menu, in the bottom left corner of the taskbar

  2. Right-click on the start menu icon and select Windows-PowerShell (Admin)

  3. When PowerShell opens, navigate to the install folder that you extracted earlier, by running the below command.

Cd C:\SyncFusiondeploymentX.X\SyncFusionDashboardServerInstaller.v1.0.13\Packages

PLEASE NOTE: X.X in the string above should be replaced with the package version name e.g. 8.0 or 9.0, so would end up looking like: cd C:\SyncFusionDeployment8.0\.....

  1. Run the AlembaDashboardInstall.ps1 file by adding the following code in Powershell and pressing Enter on the keyboard:

.\AlembaDashboardInstall.ps1
  1. Answer the following prompts as they appear:

The answer is usually n.

Best Practice

Do not install Syncfusion on the same server as ASM. The ASM 10.+ Upgrade package removes/deletes the IIS configs for all other web pages on the App server. This will break ASM. For this reason, SF is never installed on the ASM application server.
