You can install Best Practices Analyzer on computers with a supported operating system that are not running Lync Server 2010, Core Components or WMI Backward Compatibility Package, but you can use Best Practices Analyzer on those computers only to view reports, not to run scans.

Choosing a Computer for Installation

We recommend that you install Lync Server 2010, Best Practices Analyzer on a computer that is dedicated to Lync Server management. You can install the tool on a server running Lync Server 2010 or an administrative computer running Lync Server administrative tools. If you install the tool on a server that is running Lync Server, we recommend that you use the tool to scan only that server. For details about installing and using the Lync Server administrative tools, see Lync Server-Verwaltungstools in the Lync Server 2010 Operations documentation.

You can download Best Practices Analyzer from the Microsoft Download Center at no cost. For details about downloading and installing Best Practices Analyzer, see Microsoft Lync Server 2010, Best Practices Analyzer at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=211230.

To install Best Practices Analyzer, start the Microsoft Installer file RtcBPA.msi on the computer where you want to install the tool, and then follow the instructions on the screen. The default location for installing the program files is <system drive>\Program Files\Microsoft Lync Server 2010\BPA.

Checking for Updates

When you start Best Practices Analyzer, the tool provides you with an option to search for the latest updates to the tool. If an update is available, you can download the update. If you choose not to download updates, or if Best Practices Analyzer cannot access the Internet, you can continue to use the version that is already on the computer.

To update Best Practices Analyzer rules, you must run the tool as an Administrator on the local computer.
