Editor's Notes
- #8: SQL 2012 ServerDatabase server for all SharePoint 2013 databasesSP2013 - Central AdministrationSharePoint 2013 server that will host the central administration serviceSP2013 - Web Front EndSharePoint 2013 server that will host the web service for all usersSP2013 – AppsA standalone server that will not have SharePoint 2013 installed but will be used to host the Workflow Manager Server and Office Web Apps Server
- #9: Load the SharePoint 2013 DVD and select Install software prerequisitesOn some occasions it will fail to install .net framework and web server role
- #10: Written by Craig Lussier - http://craiglussier.com download and install pre-requisites.Great for using in situations where the SharePoint server doesn’t have internet access.Download on another computer and move to SharePoint and then install them using script
- #11: Product key determines install features. Foundation or EnterpriseServer types depends on usage, a Dev environment will be happy on a single stand alone server. Production environment is normally complete so you can create a farm.
- #12: Adding servers to the SharePoint farm requires running the pre-requisite installer and the SharePoint installer on the new serverYou will need to know the database server and configuration database nameYou will also need to know the passphraseYou can reset the passphrase using powershell
- #20: New for SharePoint 2013 is the introduction of Office Web Apps as a separate server system that can’t coexist with a SharePoint 2013 installation
- #21: Office Web Apps server requires a number of prerequisites to be installed prior to running the installation file and the simplest way to install them is to run a PowerShell script
- #22: The certificate name is the friendly name of the certificate applied to the Office Web Apps server and the –EditingEnabled command allows the editing of documents by Office Web AppsYou should only enable editing if you are licensed to do so
- #24: $x is a variable that holds the mapping object to input at the Add command<ADsecuritygroup> is the AD group you want to assign the license toBindingwill by default use HTTPS so the FQDN of the Office Web Apps server needs to be used
- #26: Installing SharePoint Server 2013 gives you the same functionality as a SharePoint 2010 workflow out of the box, however to make use of the much greater feature set that is workflows in SharePoint 2013 you need to install the new Workflow ManagerBefore installing you need to decide if you are going to run the Workflow Manager co-located with a running SharePoint 2013 instance or if you are going to install it as a standalone server. Installing it as a standalone server has obvious advantages in that it removes the load of running workflows from your SharePoint farm to a server that you can tailor to your specific needs
- #28: When setting the service account ensure you enter the USER ID as a full qualified domain user as shown in the screenshotThe next section of page 1 covers the setup of certificates and ports that will be used by Workflow Manager, when you initially scroll down to this section the tick box for auto generation of certificates will be ticked, this will create self-signed certificates, which in a production environment is not a good idea. Remove the tick from the box to assign certificates manuallyThe final section of page 1 covers the ports used by Workflow Manager, by default the port numbers are 12290 for HTTPS and 12291 for HTTPHowever http is not enabled by default and if you are deploying Workflow Manager in a production environment it is not recommended to enable itIf you require http then simply click the box next to Allow Workflow management over HTTP on this computer
- #29: The Workflow Manager client is required on all SharePoint 2013 web front ends when the Workflow Manager Server is a standalone server
- #30: If SharePoint 2013 Workflow is selectable in the drop down then the connection was successful and you can continue to create new expressive workflows
