Deploying the Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Project

Creating a Deployment Profile for the projects that define external system connections to the master index application through Collaborations consists of the following steps.

• Creating a Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Deployment Profile

• Mapping Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Project Components

• Building and Deploying the Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Project

Before beginning these steps, make sure the master index server project has been deployed. This creates a Master Index External Application in the Environment, which is required for deployment.

Creating a Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Deployment Profile

Before beginning this procedure, you must have created, built, and deployed the Sun Master Index application Deployment Profile, as described in Deploying the Master Index (Repository) Server Project.

To Create a Collaboration Client Deployment Profile

1. In the NetBeans Projects window, right-click the Collaboration client project.

2. Point to New, and then click Deployment Profile.

   The Create Deployment Profile dialog box appears.

3. In the Deployment Profile Name field, type a name for the Deployment Profile.

4. In the Environment drop-down list, select the Environment you created for the master index server project.

5. Click OK.

   The Deployment Editor appears.

6. Continue to Mapping Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Project Components.

Mapping Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Project Components

Once you create a Deployment Profile, you need to configure the project components in the deployment Environment. When you map the project components to the Environment, you are specifying the Logical Host to handle the transactions.

Project components can also be automatically mapped. For more information, see Mapping Master Index (Repository) Project and Environment Components.

To Map Collaboration Client Project Components

1. With the Collaboration client project Deployment Profile open in the Deployment Editor, drag the Services from the left panel onto the application server in the Deployment Editor in the right panel.

   ---

   Tip –

   The application server appears in the Logical Host in the Environment.

   ---

2. Drag the master index application from the left panel onto the Master Index External System in the right panel.

   Both the application and External System are named after the master index application.

3. Drag the external system Adapters from the left panel to the appropriate external systems in the Environment.

4. If you implemented a JMS Topic, drag the Topic from the left panel to the JMS IQ Manager in the Logical Host.

5. Continue to Building and Deploying the Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Project.

Building and Deploying the Master Index (Repository) Collaboration Client Project

Once all project components are mapped to the Environment, you can build the project to create and compile all the files needed to run the project. Deploying the project places the files on the server.

For this to be successful, the application server must be started.

To Build and Deploy the Collaboration Client Project

1. Click Build to generate the project files.

2. After the build competes successfully, click Deploy to deploy the project to a server.
