Remember: You should have a plan to back up your installation. For more information, see Backup and storage considerations.

Jive includes most of what you need to get the application running and configured for a simple evaluation or development installation, but running it in production requires you to set up a database and configure a distributed environment with multiple server nodes. Each production instance includes external components you need to provide. You should read the requirements, described in Required external components, carefully before you begin your installation.

Note: Previous versions included a Postgres database as part of the installation package: this component is no longer included. For instructions on how to set up your database if you want to create a single-computer installation for non-production use, see Quick database setup for evaluations.
