Before you consider deploying a new CLM, upgrading or adding to a system, or modifying a system in any way, the reader is strongly encouraged to become familiar with the CLM Release Notice for release-specific information that may apply to your deployment.

After the planning phase, you must become familiar with the relevant content in this and the subsequent Part I: Getting started chapters, which describe platform preparation.

When the platform configuration is established, your planned deployment action can proceed using the required procedures in Part II: CLM system deployment.
