Installing the service

You install the service on one machine – typically the same machine that runs the XProtect Management Server and/or XProtect Event Server.

You can install the service manually or through an MSI push.

  • If you install the service manually, and .NET 8 is not installed, the setup installs .NET 8.

  • If you install the service through an MSI push, and .NET 8 is not already installed, the installation of .NET 8 must be pushed separately and beforehand. The service requires only a handful of configuration values: Customer ID, Customer Key, Migration ID, and the storage drive letter. The configuration values are all provided ahead of time. They can be handled automatically as part of the MSI installation, or you can configure them after the installation in the XProtect Smart Client.
