Prerequisites

Windows Server 2022 or higher with the Desktop Experience is recommended for DeployR Community. (Server Core is not currently supported.). For lab use, Windows 11 can be used as well. 4GB of RAM is recommended, with sufficient disk space to hold all of the content that you expect to deploy. 100GB is a recommended minimum, but depending on your specific needs, more may be needed. The computer can be domain-joined or a workgroup machine.

Before starting the installation, the following are required:

• The TwoPint.DeployRCommunity installer, which can be downloaded from https://releases.2pintsoftware.com.

• A no-cost license (product key), obtained by registering via https://2pintsoftware.com/products/deployr-community

• A fully-qualfied domain name (FQDN) registered in DNS (internally or externally, depending on how you plan to access DeployR) that points to the IP address of the computer being used.

• Requires internet access

All other requirements will be automatically handled by the installation process itself.

Note that DeployR Community uses SQLite by default for storage of all the DeployR-related metadata. It can be configured to use SQL Server or SQL Express manually after the installation is completed, but in most cases SQLite is sufficient for the amount of metadata that needs to be stored and retrieved.
