Running the Installation Plan for the Production Environment

Caution: The production environment must be unavailable during this task. All users must be logged off the production environment, and no production processes can run during this time.

After you have created a plan for the production environment, as well as having copied all the necessary components from the prototype environment, you are ready to run the plan using Installation Workbench. During Installation Workbench, run Table Conversion Workbench and Control Table Workbench. These processes preserve and merge the business data and control tables from your production environment.

To run the Installation Plan for the production environment:

  1. Take the production environment offline.

  2. Log on to the planner environment.

  3. On Installation Workbench, double-click the installation plan you created for the production environment.

  4. Perform the tasks in the Installation Workbench section.
