Downloading the ArcSight Platform Installation Files
You can download the installation packages for the products in the ArcSight Platform from the Micro Focus Downloads website. The installation packages include their respective signature files for validating that the downloaded software is authentic and has not been tampered with by a third party.
Micro Focus provides several options for deploying products in your environment. For more information about deploying a product, see the Administrator’s Guide for ArcSight Platform.
Understanding the Files to Download
You can download the following installation packages. You only need one copy of each file, regardless of the products that you intend to deploy. For example, the Transformation Hub-based files are available with the ESM, Intelligence, and Recon software downloads, but you only need to download the files once. The Transformation Hub file set includes the packages for the CDF installer, the ArcSight Platform Installer, and the ArcSight database.
