ArcGIS® Business Analyst 9.3.1 Installation

 

Important - Make sure you install Business Analyst by running the setup from Business Analyst 9.3.1 DVD #1

ESRI Technical Support: 888-377-4575—Specify Business Analyst

Hours: 6:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. (Pacific time), Monday–Friday


System requirements

The minimum system requirements for ArcGIS Business Analyst 9.3.1 are the same as those for ArcGIS Desktop 9.3.1,
except for the following:

•   At least 1 GB RAM is needed to adequately run many of the functions, although 2 GB is recommended.

•   It is highly recommended that you load all the Business Analyst data components to your local hard drive, which will require approximately 9 GB of disk space. It is possible to run Business Analyst while accessing the data from the DVD or from another drive on your network, but the performance will be significantly slower. Also, regardless of where the Business Analyst data components exist, you will need approximately 350 MB of additional space in the ArcGIS Desktop installation location (e.g., C:\Program Files\ArcGIS). This is required to install the necessary Business Analyst program and data files.

•   Although it is not a requirement for installing and working with Business Analyst, please note that you must have Microsoft Excel® 2000 or higher if you wish to work with Excel tables in ArcGIS 9.3.1.

Installation Options

During the ArcGIS Business Analyst 9.3.1 setup, you will be presented with two installation options:

•   Typical Data Install

•   Custom Install

Typical Data Install—This is the default installation, which will automatically load all Business Analyst data components to your local hard drive in the ArcGIS Desktop installation location (e.g., C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Business Analyst). This will require approximately 16 GB of disk space.

Custom Install—The Custom option is recommended for users with limited disk space on the local hard drive where ArcGIS Desktop is located or for those who do not need to install all the data components. This option allows you to select which data components you wish to install and where you want to install them. The following is a list of Business Analyst data components and their approximate sizes:

•   ESRI Data                                   1.9 GB

•   InfoUSA Business Data              594 MB

•   DMM Shopping Centers Data     1.0 MB

•   Geocoding Data                          7.9 GB

•   Tele Atlas Street Data                 4.0 GB

Here are common examples for using the Custom option:

•   If you want to install all data components to a location other than the default location, select the main Business Analyst data component and click Browse to specify the new location.

•   If you want to install some data components but not all of them, turn off each of the individual data components that you do not want to install by clicking the arrow next to the component and selecting Entire feature will be unavailable. You can also choose separate installation locations for each data component by selecting a component and clicking Browse to specify the location. 

 

Note for Crystal Reports XI Installation: The installation process includes Crystal Reports XI, a requirement for Business Analyst. Some computers with the Windows Vista ® operating system may experience problems with the installation of Crystal Reports XI for ESRI. If this is the case, return to the Crystal Reports installation and click on the “Crystal Report Settings” button. Choose Crystal Reports XI Release 2. When prompted, use the following Product Key Code: CP20P-9S80T2G-800NW6P-9NM2.

              

Check for Business Analyst updates

If you have access to the Internet, you can check for updates to Business Analyst by selecting this item in the Business Analyst program menu. From the Start menu, go to ArcGIS > Business Analyst > Check for Business Analyst Updates. When the dialog box appears, click the Check button to see if there are any available updates. If updates are available, you can choose to download them and also run the updates after they are downloaded. For more information, click the Help button on the dialog box. Please note that to check for Business Analyst updates, ArcMap and ArcCatalog must be closed. If you are unable to run the automatic update utility in Business Analyst due to local security protocols, you can download the latest service patch from the support site at http://support.esri.com and run the patch locally.

 

Data Update Install
(You have the Business Analyst 9.2 or 9.3 installed prior to installing Business Analyst 9.3.1) 

•   Analysis Backup: To preserve any data or analyses generated using the data in the previous version of Business Analyst, the installation utility will automatically rename the output folder, by default named My Output Data, to My Output Data_ backup. If you have renamed this folder in the Business Analyst preferences, the install utility will simply add backup to the end of this folder. For a comprehensive look at the list of data, files, and vintages, please consult the documentation folder that will be available when Business Analyst has been completely installed in the default directory C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Business Analyst\Documentation. If you wish to access analyses from a previous build, you can simply copy the contents of C:\My Output Data_backup\Projects into the new C:\My Output Data\Projects folder that is created during the install. We suggest you then rename your projects to reflect that they are from a previous update. For example, if you have a project called North Eastern District, you should rename it North Eastern District backup.

•   Custom Reports: Reports created in previous builds of Business Analyst can be imported into the new software update. After Business Analyst has completed installation, navigate to the directory C:\My Output Data_backup\Report Templates and copy the folders containing your custom reports into the directory C:\My Output Data\Report Templates_USA_ESRI. Now you will have access to your reports in the update.
