Install Master controller on the SOL controller computer. It may not be used in the actual library installation if there is another server hosting Master controller, but it is needed for convenient testing.

Use the latest Master controller available. Minimum required version is 1.6.6288. Install it normally with defaults.'

 

IMPORTANT: If the Master controller version is less than 1.6.6323, then before starting it set one setting to enable the self operated library functionality. This is not needed for 1.6.6323 or later versions.

The setting is stored in the Master controller configuration file, at

 

 C:\ProgramData\PV-Supa\MasterController\MasterControllerSettings.config

 

This is a simple XML file with some configuration options for Master controller. The setting you are looking for is EnableSelfOperatedLibraryService; set the value to true like this:

 

 <EnableSelfOperatedLibraryService>true</EnableSelfOperatedLibraryService>

 

If this setting is not already in the config file (default value being false), then the Master controller version is too old!

Save the file. Next, you need to install Management utility to be able to license Master controller.
