Configuring and Running a Full Deployment

In the following procedure, you perform a full deployment to transfer assets from the Publishing server to the Production server. Assets are persistent, publishable objects such as scenarios, user segments, and HTML files that are used by ATG applications. After the initial installation and configuration through CIM, the ATG Store assets exist on the Publishing server but they must be deployed to the Production server to be accessible from the ATG Store website.
