Business Glossary Desktop Installation and

Configuration Overview
You can install the Business Glossary Desktop in silent mode or in graphical mode. Install the Business
Glossary Desktop in silent mode for all business users in an organization. You may also request that
business users download and install the Business Glossary Desktop in graphical mode.
The Business Glossary Desktop connects to the Analyst Service which interacts with the Model Repository
Service. The Model repository hosts business glossaries.
When you install the Business Glossary Desktop it becomes available as a client on the Windows desktop
system menu for all business users. You can also provide business users a location to download the
Business Glossary Desktop. You can tell users how to configure preferences, hotkey, and server settings for
the client.

Before you Begin

Before you begin the Business Glossary Desktop installation in silent mode or in graphical mode, you must
turn the Microsoft Windows User Account Control (UAC) setting off. The UAC setting appears under User
Accounts in the Control Panel. You must have Microsoft .NET version 3.5 installed on the computer where
you want to install Business Glossary Desktop. If you have a newer version of Microsoft .NET, enable version
3.5 before you install Business Glossary Desktop.

Silent Installation
Install the Business Glossary Desktop in silent mode and configure the preferences, hotkey, and server
settings during installation.
You can use the command line to pass arguments to specify server settings for install in silent mode.

server settings for the business glossary client.
The following list describes the silent installation arguments:

line to pass arguments to install the Business Glossary Desktop. The Business Glossary Desktop menu
appears in the Windows system menu after installation.
