Understanding the Multitier Software Distribution Process
You use the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Deployment Director program (P9631) or Multi Tier Deployment batch program (R98825C) to distribute software to deployment locations and schedule them for deployment. Use the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Deployment Director program to define the scheduling parameters or to deploy the package immediately. Otherwise, use a version of Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Multi Tier Deployment batch application to distribute the software to deployment locations.
Whether you push or pull the software depends on the machine on which you run the deployment function or batch program for the scheduling program. You push the software if you run the program or report on the primary deployment server or from a workstation. Conversely, you pull the software if you run the program from a workstation at the tier deployment location. In either case, execute the application on the destination deployment location.
After the package software is distributed through the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Deployment Director program or Multi Tier Deployment batch program, you must manually copy the workstation installation programs from the primary deployment server to the tier deployment location. These programs are located in the client portion of the base installation directory.
