Multitier Deployment Terminology

This table lists and describes multitier deployment terms:

Term	Description
Primary Deployment Location (tier 1)	The primary or base deployment location is the location in which the package to be deployed to secondary or remote locations is built. The system requires at least one deployment server for installing and maintaining the software. The server at the primary deployment location should be dedicated solely to deploying and operating JD Edwards EnterpriseOne products, and should not be used for any other purposes in your company.
Tier Deployment Location (tier 2)	Tier deployment locations (also known as remote or secondary locations) have one or more deployment servers that enable you to install the software on the workstations at that location. These servers receive their packages from the deployment server at the primary or base location. Machines at the tier deployment locations cannot use Object Librarian functions such as object check-in and check-out. These machines are designed for deployment use only and are not designed to be used for remote development. The number of tiered locations that you can have depends on the network and server capacity.
Tier Workstations	Tier workstations are workstations that connect to a tier deployment location for software installation. The number of workstations per deployment location depends on the network and machine load. All tiered workstations must also have a Microsoft Windows domain connection that enables them to connect to, read, and copy files from the shared drives of their respective deployment locations.
