Perform a Single-Computer Installation

You can set up Microsoft Dynamics AX on a single computer to create a
development, test, pilot, or trial environment.

When you choose a single-computer installation, the complete Microsoft
Dynamics AX system is automatically installed and configured on the local
computer.

Setup uses default settings to configure all components. User names and
passwords are the only input required. For more information about individual
components, refer to the corresponding topics in this guide.

a production environment. Use this installation type only for development and
testing.
