Installing iDrone

The WhatsUp Gold iDrone installation file can be downloaded here. The file must be installed on a dedicated virtual machine with no other third-party software installed on the system.

Note: If you use the APM plug-in End User Monitoring (EUM) component to automatically test application performance, you must install the iDrone poller on a machine other than the WhatsUp Gold server. Then, in order for iDrone to communicate with the WhatsUp Gold APM plug-in, make sure that .NET Framework 3.5 is installed on the WhatsUp Gold system.

To install iDrone:

1. Double-click the executable file. If the Open File - Security Warning dialog appears, click Run. The AlertFox iDrone Setup Wizard launches.
2. Click Next. The Set Destination Location dialog appears.
3. Click Browse and navigate to or enter the location where you want to install iDrone.
4. Click Next. The Ready To Install dialog appears.
5. Click Install. After installation is complete, a dialog indicating it is necessary to restart your computer to complete the setup appears.
6. Select the applicable radio button indicating your preference.
7. Click Finish. If you indicated you would like to restart your computer now, your machine automatically shut down and restart.
