... h1. Communications Suite 6 Update 2 Installation Scenario - Install Message Store
h2. Assumptions
This scenario shows how to install the Messaging Server back-end message store on a separate host. It is based on the _Install back-end message store_ leaf in the [Communications Suite 6 Update 2 Installation Flowchart]. The scenario makes these assumptions:
* You are deploying Communications Suite on multiple hosts or Solaris zones.
* This Messaging Server back-end message store is one functional component of your multi-host deployment.
* You are installing the message store on a separate host or Solaris zone; you are not bundling the message store with Communication Suite products on the same host.
* If you are distributing multiple partitions of the message store across several hosts or zones, you can follow these instructions for each host on which you install store partitions.
h2. Which Software Components and Downloads Do You Need?
* Communications Suite: for the Messaging Server message store
