Understanding the Deployment Server Installation

The Deployment Server is the focus of the Release 9.2 upgrade process. The upgrade program for the Deployment Server copies the Release 9.2 software from the installation images to the Deployment Server. From the Deployment Server, the Release 9.2 software is distributed to one or more Enterprise Servers and Development Clients.

The Deployment Server installation program updates the Microsoft Windows registry with information about the Release 9.2 installation and languages, if applicable.

New for Tools and Applications Releases for 9.2, the Deployment Server installer no longer delivers any standard full packages (for example, DV920FA). Further the install no longer attaches and renames tables for package specs. However, the installer still delivers the PACKAGE\data and PACKAGE\datacomp directories.
