I. System Requirements

Before proceeding with the installation, ensure your system meets the minimum requirements:
Operating System: Windows 10 (64-bit) or Windows Server 2019/2022 (64-bit). Linux support is currently in beta and requires separate documentation.
Processor: Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 equivalent or higher.
RAM: 8 GB minimum, 16 GB recommended.
Hard Disk Space: 50 GB minimum available space.
Network Connectivity: Stable network connection to all monitored computers.
Administrator Privileges: You will need administrator privileges on both the monitoring server and the target computers.

II. Installation of the BrightVision Server

1. Download the Installer: Download the BrightVision Server installer from our official website. Ensure you download the correct version for your operating system.

2. Run the Installer: Double-click the downloaded installer file and follow the on-screen instructions. You will be prompted to accept the license agreement and choose an installation directory. The default installation directory is recommended.

3. Configure the Database: During the installation process, you will be asked to configure the database. BrightVision supports both SQL Server and MySQL. Ensure you have the necessary database credentials ready. You'll need to specify the database server address, database name, username, and password.

4. Network Configuration: The installer will ask for the IP address or hostname of the BrightVision server. Ensure this is correct as it will be used by the agents to connect to the server. You might also need to configure firewall rules to allow communication on the specified ports (details are provided in the separate firewall configuration guide).

5. Server Startup: After successful installation, the BrightVision server will automatically start. You can verify this by checking the system tray icon or through the services manager.

III. Installation of the BrightVision Agent

The BrightVision Agent is a lightweight application installed on each computer you wish to monitor.

1. Download the Agent: Download the BrightVision Agent installer from the BrightVision server's web interface. This is accessible through a web browser after server installation by typing the server's IP address in your browser. The web interface provides access to various settings and configurations.

2. Agent Installation: Run the downloaded installer on each target computer. You will need administrator privileges on each machine. The installer will guide you through the process.

3. Agent Configuration: During the agent installation, you will be prompted to enter the BrightVision server's IP address or hostname. This is crucial for the agent to connect to the server and send monitoring data.

4. Agent Startup: The BrightVision Agent will run as a background service, automatically collecting and sending data to the server. You can verify the agent's status through the server's web interface.

IV. Initial Configuration and Monitoring

After installing the server and agents, you can access the BrightVision web interface to configure monitoring parameters and view real-time data. The web interface allows for customizing dashboards, setting alerts, and generating reports. You can configure various thresholds for CPU usage, memory consumption, and other metrics to receive notifications when specific limits are exceeded.

V. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during installation or operation, consult the troubleshooting guide available on our website. Common issues include network connectivity problems, firewall restrictions, and incorrect database configuration. Ensure the server and agents have appropriate network permissions and that the firewall allows communication on the necessary ports. If problems persist, contact our support team for assistance.

VI. Security Considerations

BrightVision utilizes robust security measures to protect your data. However, it's essential to follow best practices for network security. Ensure strong passwords are used for both the server and the database. Regularly update the server and agents with the latest security patches. Implement appropriate network segmentation to isolate your monitoring infrastructure from other sensitive systems. Consult with a security professional for advanced security configurations.

This guide provides a general overview of the BrightVision computer monitoring system installation. For detailed information and advanced configurations, please refer to the comprehensive documentation available on our website. We hope this guide proves helpful in setting up your BrightVision monitoring system. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our support team.
