This chapter contains the following topics:
Section 3.1, "Understanding the Deployment Server Installation"
Section 3.3, "Using Oracle Electronic Product Delivery to Acquire Updates"
Section 3.4, "Installing the Software Update on the Deployment Server"
Note:
For ASUs, service packs, and tools releases, follow the instructions included with each update.The Deployment Server is the central hub for distribution of Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne objects to servers and users. The update process delivers changes to the deployment server to integrate with that distribution process. Each update type has a slightly different method of completing this task but the outcome is the same.
The installation process for the deployment server includes these tasks:
Acquiring the update from the Update Center, Oracle Distribution or Oracle Electronic Product Delivery (EPD) system.
Installing the objects from the CDs or the Web.
Link to the Update Center through My Oracle Support or use Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and World Change Assistant from your desktop to acquire all ESUs and updates for other Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and World products. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and World Change Assistant streamlines the update process. This versatile new tool simplifies the installation and deployment of ESUs and other updates.

If you already have JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 software and want to acquire an update, go to the Oracle Electronic Product Delivery (EPD) website at http://edelivery.oracle.com, or contact your local Customer Care Center. EPD enables you to obtain your software electronically via Oracle's Electronic Delivery website. At this site, you will find instructions for use, available languages, access to download software, and a list of releases that are available for download.
The following process installs the software update on the deployment server. This installation may be from a CD or a download from the Update Center via My Oracle Support or JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and World Change Assistant.
