Installing Advanced Matching Database

Advanced Matching provides a load utility to install databases. The database files that you install depend on the databases you have licensed.

Note: To install Advanced Matching databases on Windows Server 2008 you need administrator privileges.
  1. Make sure no applications are running.
  2. Stop Spectrum Technology Platform. To do this, right-click the Spectrum Technology Platform icon in the Windows task bar and select Stop Server.
  3. Download your Spectrum Product Database (SPD) format files from Precisely using the link provided in the Precisely communication.
    Note: The data downloads as a zip file. Unzip the database before proceeding with the installation.
  4. Select Start > Programs > Precisely > Spectrum Technology Platform > Modules > Universal Name and Advanced Matching > Universal Name and Advanced Matching Database Load Utility.
  5. Follow the prompts during the rest of the installation process.
    Note: You may install databases on a mapped drive, but performance will be affected since you will be accessing them on a network rather than accessing them locally.
  6. Open the file SpectrumDirectory\server\bin\wrapper\wrapper.conf in a text editor.
  7. Increase the Java settings for initial heap size (wrapper.java.initmemory) and maximum heap size (wrapper.java.maxmemory) to reflect the total amount of memory required for the Arabic Plus Pack and Asian Plus Pack.
    • Arabic Plus Pack: 5.5 GB
    • Asian Plus Pack - Chinese: 32 MB
    • Asian Plus Pack - Japanese: 1.6 GB
    • Asian Plus Pack - Korean: 8 MB
    • Core Names: 1.1 GB
  8. Save and close wrapper.conf.
  9. Start Spectrum Technology Platform. To do this, right-click the Spectrum Technology Platform icon in the Windows task bar and select Start Server.
