Version notes: this manual matches the 2026.10 release. Installer behavior, prompt text, and diagnostic codes were checked against the 2026-10-22 mainline; download-site screenshots were taken on 2026-10-22. Actual command output follows the installer delivered for that engagement.

Conventions
- Menus, buttons, and field names on the UI are marked with bold; menu paths use ›.
- The first-line comment of a command block states where it runs, as whom, and the effect, for example
# Install host · root · read-only. Read the comment before running a command marked write or delete. <offline-package>.zpkg,<access-url>,<YOUR_API_KEY>and similar tokens are placeholders; replace them with the real values.- Note flags when something takes effect, what it affects, and easy misunderstandings. The Capability notes table at the end of each chapter lists what the product does not provide and the available alternative.
Deployment flow
- Confirm the product, form, data dependencies, and access URL with the customer (Chapter 1).
- Customize and download the installer and offline package from the download site, then verify the digest (Chapter 2).
- Prepare the host, time sync, privileges, network, and existing dependencies (Chapter 3).
- After preflight passes, run the install and wait for post-install acceptance (Chapters 4 and 5).
- Sign in for the first time, change the initial password, create a tenant, and import the license (Chapter 6).
- Complete one real business call and fill in the acceptance record (Chapter 7).
- Copy key material off the host, complete the first platform backup, clean temporary files, and hand over (Chapter 8).
