ATG server is the term for a specific collection of configuration information, which can then be included with your Nucleus-based application when you assemble the EAR file. It can include information such as machine names and ports, system paths, and connection pools.

The Oracle ATG Web Commerce platform installation comes configured with a default server instance in the <ATG10dir>/home/servers/original directory. You can create additional, individually configurable Oracle ATG Web Commerce servers by running the <ATG10dir>/home/bin/makeDynamoServer script, or through the Configuration Manager in the Dynamo Administration UI when the default server is running. If you are using CIM to configure your installation, CIM creates Oracle ATG Web Commerce servers for you (see Configuration and Installation Manager (CIM)).

For information about assembling an EAR file that uses a non-default server, see the ATG Platform Programming Guide.
