Post-Installation Essentials WIP

End-User Documentation

After completing the installation you can share our User Guide PDF to help orient and onboard your users to Element! Or visit the Element Support book.

Where are the Installer Configuration Files

Everything that you have configured via the Element Server Suite installer is saved to configuration files placed in the .element-enterprise-server directory, found in the home directory of the user who ran the installer. In this directory, you will find a subdirectory called config that contains the actual configuration files - keep these backed up.

Running the Installer unattended

It is possible to run the installer without using the GUI provided that you have a valid set of configuration files in the .element-enterprise-server/config directory.

Using this method, you could use the GUI as a configuration editor and then take the resulting configuration and modify it as needed for further installations.

This method also makes it possible to set things up once and then run future updates without having to use the GUI.

See the Running the installer unattended section from the Automating ESS Deployment doc.
