IBM SPSS Data Collection Interviewer Server installation information
– If you choose to not reset user passwords, the server will continue to use the MD5 hash
function algorithm.
Keep the following points in mind when modifying an existing installation:
– When changing
Con
fi
gure for FIPS 140-2 Compliance
from enabled to disabled, the
SHA-1 hash function algorithm will continue to be employed.
– When changing
Con
fi
gure for FIPS 140-2 Compliance
from disabled to enabled, the
parameters outlined in the
fi
rst bullet point are employed.
Refer to the
National Institute of Standards and Technology

)
website for more information
regarding FIPS 140-2.
Notes
: When FIPS 140-2 is con
fi
gured for IBM SPSS Data Collection products, the applications
adhere to the password protection security protocols that are de
fi
ned on the Interviewer Server.
For example, if the Interviewer Server is con
fi
gured for MD5 security, the client-side applications
will also use MD5 security for password protection, regardless of whether or not the
Con
fi
gure for
FIPS 140-2 Compliance
setting was selected during installation.
When Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 is installed on a computer that is running Windows 7
or Windows Server 2008 R2, and FIPS enabled, you cannot run an ASP.NET 3.5-based
application that use a ScriptManager control. You can download a

Cluster installation
When you install onto more than one machine you typically follow these steps:
E
First, log in to the server that will host the Accessories Service and
create a site preparation
fi
le
. This
fi
le names the machines on which the various services will be installed, and sets up a
central site preparation folder that can be used by other machines in the cluster. The installation
procedure installs not only the services you choose for the machine you have logged in to, but also
the project management components. This machine becomes the Primary DPM server.
E
Secondly, on each of the machines named in the site preparation
fi
le,
run the installation program
from the site preparation folder. Always install onto your Accessories servers
fi
rst, followed by all
Interviewing servers, and
fi
nally all Web servers.
