Introduction to Client Distribution
The Pervasive.SQL Server installation includes an installation for the Win32 and DOS clients. The client installation is located in the Pervasive.SQL installation directory. If Pervasive.SQL was installed to the default location of C:\PVSW, the installations are located at:
C:\PVSW\CLIENTS\All Pervasive.SQL server installations also contain the client components. That is, every Pervasive.SQL server is also a client.
You can install your clients individually by mapping a drive to the server's client install directory. Or, you can install a minimal client that uses the server for some of its functionality.
You can also use a Systems Management Server to install Pervasive.SQL clients. The following section details these options for installing a large number of clients.
Recommended Method of Installing Clients

Whenever possible, you should install clients using the Pervasive.SQL client installation program documented in that chapter.
The Complete installation is recommended. If using a small amount of disk space is critical to your organization, you can use a Network client as documented in Minimal Clients: Using the Pervasive.SQL Server for Requester Operations .
