This page discusses the installation of the local (client) side of a copy of the OLI Software. All the software packages use the same installation path.


What you need to know before you start

Since this is a network copy you must have the following information available to use the OLI software.

  • The client serial number provided by OLI Systems.
  • Server Name or IP address
  • Firewall port if required

We will be using the OLI Studio program as an example of the installation but all the OLI software use the same paths.


Installing a new copy of the OLI Software

In this tutorial we are installing the network copy (client) that did not have a previous version of this OLI software installed. We are installing OLI Studio 9.2.7

You first need to find the installation file that you obtained from OLI Systems.

You will now need the client serial number provided by OLI Systems. A license file was sent to you or your company and will contain two serial numbers. Here is an example (these are not your serial numbers)

Server Serial Number = V2-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-0U@6
Client Serial Number = V2-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-YYYY-1LUR

The Server Serial Number is used to install the OLI Network License Manager and to download software from the OLI download site. The Client Serial Number is used to install the local software. This is the number you need to use.

In the box labeled Serial Number, enter the Client Serial Number:
