Hosts

InstallAnywhere 2013

Edition: Host options are available in the Premier edition of InstallAnywhere. The Professional edition uses only the Operating System host, which requires no additional configuration on the Organization and Sequence pages.

InstallAnywhere can apply rules, deploy files, and execute actions on three different types of hosts:

Operating System host is the default host, transparent to InstallAnywhere Professional Edition users, that contains files, launchers, and actions that your installers deliver to the target system.
Application Server hosts target an application server such as Geronimo, JBoss, Resin, Sun Application Server, TomCat, WebLogic, and WebSphere.
Database Server hosts target a database server such as MySQL, Oracle, MS SQL Server, DB2, and several others.
