Multitier Deployment Configuration Steps for the Case Study
These steps summarize the steps necessary to configure the system for multitier deployment:
Define the deployment locations.
Define the deployment locations on the deployment server (DENSVR1 in this example). Use Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Deployment Locations Application program (P9654A) to define all deployment locations.
For this case study, complete these fields to define three locations, one for each deployment location in Denver, Atlanta, and Chicago:
Field
Value
Location
Enter the name of the deployment location.
In this case study, you assign these names for each physical deployment location: Denver, Atlanta, and Chicago.
Description
Enter a description (any value up to 30 characters) for each deployment location; for example:
Denver: Denver - Tier 1
Atlanta: Atlanta - Tier 2
Chicago: Chicago - Tier 2
Location Code
Enter the current location for deployment; for example, DEN.
Parent Location
Enter the name of the parent location for the location that you are adding; for example, Corporate.
Create deployment server definitions.
Use the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Deployment Locations Application program (P9654A) to create a definition for each deployment server at the deployment locations that you created. For this case study, you need to define a deployment server for Atlanta and Chicago. The deployment server in Denver is already defined because it is the primary (tier 1) server.
For this case study, complete the fields on the Deployment Server Revisions form as described in this table:
Field
Value
Machine Name
Enter the name of the physical machine.
In this case study, enter these values:
Denver: DENSVR1
Atlanta: ATLSVR1
Chicago: CHISVR1
Description
Enter a description (any value up to 30 characters).
For example, Multitier Deployment - Denver.
Release
Enter the number of the release.
For example, E920.
Primary User
Enter the primary user for the machine that you entered.
Server Share Path
Enter the name of the shared directory for the path code in which system files and other files reside.
For example, \E920.
Schedule the package.
Schedule the package to be deployed from the tier 1 deployment server to the tier 2 deployment servers through the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Deployment Director program (P9631) or Multi Tier Deployment batch program (R98825C).
