ARIES Installation Guide
Installing ARIES™
Welcome to Release 5000.1.12.0 of the ARIES™ reserves and
economics evaluation software. This document includes information on
the system requirements for installation, the installation steps,
connecting to your database, plus the utilities included for licensing
needs. Also included are instructions for working with Oracle databases,
if you choose that database type.
Included in this installation package are the components for:
•
ARIES™ System - Project Manager, Graphics, and Economics
•
ARIES™ Modeler - User and Modeler - used for complex asset
analysis and international fiscal regimes.
•
ARIES™ RMS - the reserves management system
•
ARIES™ DecisionSuite™ - used to model uncertainty.
During installation you can choose the Typical installation to add
ARIES™ System, ARIES™ Modeler, ARIES™ RMS, and ARIES™
Decision Suite to your computer. Or you can choose the Custom
installation and exclude the ARIES™ Modeler component. While you
can install all these program modules, your use of particular products is
controlled by the software licenses you have.
Before You Install
Please refer to the System Requirements section below before starting
the installation.
The following general requirements must be met before you can install
and run the ARIES™ 5000.1.12.0 software:

Installing ARIES™
ARIES Installation Guide
Installation
For standalone and local area network environments, the ARIES™
software is always installed on the local, end-user computer. The
ARIES™ database(s) can be located on various servers on your
network, but the application is installed as standalone on each computer.
You must have Administrative Rights to the local computer to perform
the installation.
The instructions for standalone installation are presented first.
Guidelines for local area network installations, which must be
performed by your network administrators, are presented in “Installing
ARIES™ on a Network” on page 18.
For wide area network environments, such as Citrix, the installations are
custom and must be implemented and supported by your company
network administrators or the Landmark Consulting Services group.
The majority of installations are based on files that you have
downloaded from the Landmark Software Manager web site. If you
require a DVD, you can request this in Landmark Software Manager.
The installation steps for these approaches are similar.
Before starting the installation, make sure to close all applications.
ARIES can be download from the Landmark Software Manager or you
can request a DVD.
1.
On the Home page select the
tab located
immediately below the red Landmark Software Manager title.
2.

Installing ARIES™ on a Network
There are many possible installation configurations and methods that
could be used for deploying ARIES™ on a local area network. The best
method for your particular situation depends upon the number of users
and your network environment.
The general system requirements and other conditions discussed earlier
for standalone installations apply.
For a small network the most straightforward approach is to download,
install, and license ARIES™ independently on each workstation. To do
this follow the steps described earlier under Typical or Custom
Installation.
For a larger network, you may want to create an Application
Distribution Site and use Microsoft SMS or other tools to push the
installation to the workstations. Network administrators can use the
ARIES™5000.1.12.0Setup.exe file contained in the zip file you
downloaded from LSM as the basis for this. You specified the location
for this file earlier in the download process.
1.
Launch the system Run dialog.
2.
Navigate to the directory where ARIES™5000.1.12.0Setup.exe is
located.
3.
To extract the files and create a server image in a network location

ARIES™ can connect to several different data sources (e.g. Access,
SQL Server, Oracle). If you have an existing ARIES™ database you
can connect to it immediately after installing ARIES™. If you are a
new user or connecting to a different data source, you will need to
follow the instructions below.
For this example, a connection will be made to the ARIES Sample
Database included in the installation. We will call this database ARIES
New Sample.
5000.1.12.0
1.
Go to <installation_directory>\ARIES\DB directory.
2.
Unzip the ClassicAriesSample.zip file to a directory you define.
The SampleAriesClassic.mdb file will be placed in that directory.
You will need to know this directory location later in these
instructions.
