To install PulseUno on Windows:

  1. Download the installation .zip file and extract the installer.

  2. As a local system user, launch the installer.

  3. Select the language of the installer. Choose from German, English, French, or Portuguese. By default, English is selected.

    1. As a local system user, open a command prompt and change to the directory with the installation file.

    2. Run this command to launch the installation wizard in Chinese or Japanese:

      Copy code 
      <PulseUno-installer>.exe -l <language-argument>


      where:

      <PulseUno-installer>.exe
      		Specifies the name of the PulseUno installation file.
      <language-argument>

      Specifies the language of the installer:

      • zh_CN for Chinese

      • ja for Japanese

      For example, to run the installer in Chinese, enter:

      Copy code 
      pulseuno-23.2.0-setup-windows.exe -l zh_CN

    Note: This option doesn't set the language of the PulseUno user interface. The installer delivers the English version of PulseUno. To change the default UI language after the installation, see Set system properties.

  4. Read and accept the license agreement.

  5. Enter the installation path or accept the default location:

    C:\ProgramData\OpenText\PulseUno

  6. Select the modules to install:

    • PulseUno server
    • Vault server
    • Git server

    By default, all modules are selected.

  7. Enter an encryption passphrase to connect the modules.

    Note: If you are installing each module separately, you must use the same passphrase for all the modules. You can later connect other Git and Vault instances to PulseUno using this passphrase. The passphrase is case-sensitive.
