In case of *nix operating systems, you can choose to create an installation directory for GreenVulcano® ESB into the user's home directory (ex. /home/gvuser), or paths established by the System Administrators (ex. /opt). Navigate to the directory chosen for installation and decompress the file with the command: unzip GvEnterprise3.1.0.zip

In case of Windows operating systems, you should unpack the ZIP file to a directory editable by the user, used to run GreenVulcano® ESB. It is recommended NOT to use spaces in the directory name. Navigate to the directory chosen for installation and decompress the file using a program compatible with the GNU zip compression format.

Before using GreenVulcano^® ESB is necessary to set some environment variables.

1. Create the JBOSS_HOME environment variable and set it with the absolute path installation of JBoss;
