      The following information guides you through the full installation process of the application server and client.
    - Install a remote client
      This information guides you through the process of installing a remote client on a different machine than the application server.
    - Configure multiple servers on a single machine
      After installing application server, you can configure a multiple server environment onto a single machine. This procedure demonstrates how to create two additional server instances; however, you can create as many instances as you require.
    - Revert multiple servers on a single machine back to a single server

      - Display the host server name in the Proficy client for a one-click client
        By default, the server name is displayed in the client, next to the server state icon. However, if you want to display a more meaningful name for your server, you can configure an alias so that the alias is displayed in the client rather than the actual server name.
    - Command-line (Silent) Installation
      You can install the server, client, or hosts using command line parameters. You can also use this method to install multiple servers, ensuring that the same configuration data is used in all instances.
