Installing Interact
You must run the IBM® EMM installer to start the installation of Interact. The IBM® EMM installer starts the Interact installer during the installation process. Make sure that the IBM® EMM installer and the product installer are saved at the same location.
Each time that you run the IBM® EMM Suite installer, you must first enter database connection information for the Marketing Platform system tables. When the Interact installer starts, you must enter the required information for Interact.
After installing Interact, you can create an EAR file for your product, and you can install the reports package for your product. Creating the EAR file and installing the reports package are not mandatory actions.

Before you install Interact, make sure that the available temporary space on the computer where you install Interact is more than three times the size of the Interact installer.
