Installing the server

This chapter describes how to install the Perforce service or upgrade an existing installation for connected clients. For information on how to install a server that supports clients who want to work disconnected, see the "Install" chapter of Using Helix Core Server for Distributed Versioning.

Many of the examples in this book are based on the UNIX version of the Perforce service. In most cases, the examples apply equally to both Windows and UNIX installations. The material for UNIX also applies to Mac OS X.
