4 Working With the Client Full Package

This section discusses:

4.1 Understanding the Client Full Package

The package build and assembly process includes many critical tasks that must be successfully completed to correctly install packages. See JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Package Management Guide for details on building, assembling, and deploying packages. That guide lists most of these tasks and gives step-by-step instructions for completing them.

It is necessary to build a Full Client and Server Package when upgrading to the Tools Release 9.1. If this tools release has an enterprise server download, you must first upgrade the enterprise servers before you upgrade the workstations. If the enterprise servers are not upgraded first, they may not be able to properly receive and process requests from workstations that are upgraded.
