After designing the system configuration, you must install the JP1/Software Distribution programs.

Each program includes components that can be selected for each facility. When installing each program, select the components to be used.

When installing each of the JP1/Software Distribution programs, install the programs sequentially from higher to lower systems.

To install JP1/Software Distribution for the first time:

1. Install JP1/Software Distribution Manager on the computer used as the managing server.
2. Install JP1/Software Distribution Manager or JP1/Software Distribution Client on each computer used as a relay manager/system.
3. Install JP1/Software Distribution Client on each computer used as a client.

When installing JP1/Software Distribution Client, which is usually installed on many machines, you can use the automatic installation facility to reduce the administrator's workload.

When you upgrade JP1/Software Distribution, you can use JP1/Software Distribution to upgrade the JP1/Software Distribution Clients by remote installation.
