Description

This module provides an environment validation tool that helps determine whether a server is suitable for hosting the Alfresco open source CMS.

The tool is distributed as an archive (zip) file that contains executable scripts that will run the tool. The tool itself is implemented as a Java (JVM 1.5+) command line application.

Please note that this tool is not exhaustive - it simply validates some of the more common environmental problems Alfresco has seen. Administrators intending to install Alfresco should ensure they have fully validated that their environment is on the Alfresco Supported Stack. They should also ensure they have reviewed, understood and applied the various installation related information available from the Alfresco Support Portal, the Alfresco Wiki and official product documentation.

After completing environment validation, but prior to installation, administrators should also review the Alfresco Day Zero Configuration Guide, to ensure they are able to complete basic configuration of Alfresco immediately following installation.
