Installing BEA SALT Using GUI-Mode Installation

This section contains the following topics:

 

What Is GUI-Mode Installation

The graphical user interface mode installation is the graphics-based method of executing the BEA SALT installation program. It can run on both Windows and UNIX systems.

To run GUI-mode installation, the computer console on which you are installing the software must support a Java-based GUI. All consoles for Windows systems support Java-based GUIs, but not all consoles for UNIX systems do.

Note: To install BEA SALT on a UNIX system with a non-graphics console, see Installing BEA SALT Using Console-Mode Installation.
