You must be an Administrator to do the installation. If you are not logged in as Administrator, do so now.

The following tasks must be completed during the PMDF installation:

1. Insert the PMDF CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, and run Windows Explorer (or click on the CD-ROM icon) to make the directories on the CD-ROM visible as folders.
2. If you have previously installed PMDF, you must shutdown all PMDF processes before attempting to reinstall or upgrade PMDF. Use this command to shutdown PMDF:

   pmdf shutdown

   
   

3. If you have previously installed PMDF, you must first deinstall PMDF before attempting to reinstall or upgrade PMDF.
4. Deinstall PMDF from your system by clicking on
   • Start Menu, then
   • Settings, then
   • Control Panel, then
   • Add/Remove Programs
5. Select PMDF and click on Add/Remove.

   Note Deinstallation of PMDF deletes only those files present in the distribution kit. In particular, deinstallation will not remove site-generated files and other files such as the PMDF configuration file: \pmdf\table\pmdf.cnf If you wish to remove these files, you must delete them by hand after InstallShield finishes.

6. Open the \Windows folder (listed on your CD-ROM drive), and then double click on the Setup program to start the installation.
7. Enter the license information from your most recent license. Make sure to update the licenses for all the PMDF layered products that you are using.
