Tip

The hardware requirements listed are the minimum. Every environment is different and there's a very good chance that your environment may need more. See Recommendations for Installing, Sizing, Deploying, and Maintaining a BizTalk Server Solution.

Install SWIFT

Before you begin

Sign in using an account that is a member of the BizTalk Server Administrators group.
In your BizTalk Server download, the A4SWIFT setup is in the \BizTalk Accelerators folder.
BizTalk Server must be installed, and SQL Server must be running.
A silent installation is supported, but is not recommended due to the complexity of the additional configuration steps that are required.
The A4SWIFT setup always runs with the /InstallPlatform argument. As a result, the setup always installs msvcr71.dll, mfc71u.dll, msvcp71.dll, and atl71.dll, which are required for Visual Studio. The setup installs these DLL files into the %WINDIR%\System32 folder, whether the DLLs have been previously installed or not.

Default installation

Run the BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT setup.exe as Administrator.
Select Install.
Enter your User name, your Organization, and your product key. Select Next.
Read the licensing agreement, and then select Accept.
Select Complete, and then select Next.
Review the Summary page. To make any changes, select Back.

To enable auto-logon after a system reboot, select Set, and enter the sign-in account. This is only enabled during the setup. When setup is complete, this setting is disabled.

Select Install.
Select Finish when complete. A setup log file is generated in a temp folder, similar to: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Setup(111016 xxxxxx).log.

Note

If Run Configuration Wizard is selected on the Installation Completed page, the A4SWIFT Configuration Wizard runs automatically when you click Finish.
