How to Install Orion Information Service to a XP Computer

I'm evaluating the new EOC program and since we have NPM on XP computers (don't ask me why XP) I can't find an install for the Orion Information Service required to monitor them from the EOC. Can you provide me a stand alone install for that service?

Thanks.

I don't think that will work but you should open a ticket even if you are -pre-sales to have an SE assist with your scenario-

You must be running at least Orion 8.5.1 SP3. If you run the EOC installer on the Orion 8.5.1 server, it will offer you the option of just installing the Information Service. We do not officially support NPM on XP, so we haven't tested it. It may or may not work. On Windows 2003, it defnitely works.

I did try that but, I cannot run the EOC installer on XP it says it can only be installed on Server 2003.

I knew we didn't test it, but I couldn't remember whether we blocked. And obviously we blocked it. There's not going to be a way around it. If you want to trial it, you could download an evaluation version of NPM v9 and do it that way. If you want to deploy it, you'll have to upgrade your NPM to v9. We don't support XP there, but we don't block it either.
