Using EasySMF > Installation

Setup Options

-keyurl <license-key-update-url>

e.g.

EasySMFSetup.exe -keyurl http://192.168.1.2/key.txt

If the URL is set, EasySMF will retrieve its license key via HTTP. It will also check this URL for a new key when the current key expires. This allows you to centralize the administration of the license key.

3.Setup will check that the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Common Language Runtime is installed on your computer, then install EasySMF.

4.If the .NET Framework is not already installed on your computer, Setup will download it and install it for you. Alternatively, you can install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 using Windows Update.

5.Follow the prompts in the installation dialog to complete the installation.

6.The first time you run EasySMF you will be prompted to choose a location to store SMF data (the SMF data repository).
You can create additional repositories later if you have different types of data that you want to keep separate.
