Steps to install VembuIntegrationService Manually for Desktop Operating Systems

KB ID: 103080
Purpose:
This KB article provides step-by-step instructions for manually installing VembuIntegrationService (VIS) on Microsoft Windows systems. This method is useful when push installation is not supported due to reasons such as the user lacking native administrative privileges, the Windows machine being a Desktop OS, or when remote installation is not supported for the specific Windows OS.

Solution:
Follow the steps below to manually install VIS on Microsoft Windows systems:
1. Download VembuIntegrationService.zip from the provided download option.
2. Extract the downloaded zip file, which contains the following files:
  1. VembuIntegrationService_X_X_X.msi (64-bit installer)
  2. VembuIntegrationService_x86_X_X_X.msi (32-bit installer)
  3. InstallationDetails.xml (Configuration file)
  4. Installation_steps.pdf
3. Edit the InstallationDetails.xml file by adding the following values to attributes:
  1. “Host_Name”: The value should be either the IP address or machine name of the target Windows machine. Use the same value while adding it to the Vembu BDR server. Ensure the target is reachable from the network of Vembu BDR.
  2. “PortNo”: The value must be “42005”. Ensure no application is using the port before installing VIS. Leave the rest of the fields unchanged.
4. Place the edited configuration file (InstallationDetails.xml) and the appropriate *.msi file (32-bit or 64-bit installer based on Windows OS) in the following location:
C:\Windows\Vembu\<Configuration File & Installer>
If the folder structure doesn't exist, create it. If it already exists, replace existing files with the new ones.
5. Install the *.msi file by double-clicking on it. (Read the Note section before installation).
6. Once installed, add the Microsoft Windows Host via the Vembu BDR web console.
Note: VembuIntegrationService installation requires Microsoft VC++ redistributable packages pre-installed.
