Entering Enterprise Server Information

Note: During the definition of the Enterprise Server, a port number must be defined. While Enterprise Servers running the same release can use the same port number, an Enterprise Server running two different versions of software must use two different port numbers.

To enter Enterprise Server information:

1. On Enterprise Server, click the OK button to define a new Enterprise Server, or click the Select button to choose from a list of existing Enterprise Servers.

   

   If you choose Select, you are presented with the Machine Search table, from which you can make your selection.

   

2. On Enterprise Server Revisions, verify or complete these fields:

   Field	Description
   Machine Name	The name of the primary Enterprise Server. The name is case sensitive and should not contain any special characters. Because the machine name is used to create the Server Map datasource name, and because the Platform Pack Installer does not restrict you from entering a machine name that results in a datasource name greater than 30 characters; if the machine name for the Enterprise Server is longer than 13 characters, the resulting datasource name will be longer than the allowed 30 characters. For example, if your machine name is 15 characters (A23456789012345), the base datasource name input into the Planner would be: A23456789012345 - 920 Server Map. Note: The field in table F98611 is a hard restriction; the field only allows 30 characters. The actual field size cannot be modified or changed. When the Planner runs it truncates the value to 30 characters because that is the restriction in the F98611 table. The Platform Pack does not truncate the value when it builds the jde.ini for the Enterprise Server. Therefore, any value greater than 30 characters will result in a mismatch between the jde.ini and the F98611 table. That is, using the previous example, the jde.ini would have the full length value A23456789012345 - 920 Server Map (which is 32 characters) while the F98611 populated by the Planner would have a value of A23456789012345 - 920 Server M. To remedy, you could do any one of the following: Manually modify values in table F98611 to match the truncated value in the jde.ini file. Ensure that the value is not truncated by limiting the datasource name to 30 characters (this would mean limiting the machine name for the Enterprise Server to 13 characters). Manually truncate the value in the F98611 table (for example, A23456789012345 - 920 Svr Map. In any case, you must ensure that the values for Server Map datasource names in the F98611 table exactly match those in the jde.ini file on the Enterprise Server.
   Description	Enter a description for the machine.
   Release	Enter the Release 9.2 release number to which this plan applies, or use the visual assist button to choose one from the list. The default value is E920.
   Host Type	Click the visual assist button and select the type of Enterprise Server you are adding to the plan. In this case, Intel NT.
   Location	Displays the location chosen for this plan by default.
   Primary User	Specify the user to whom an email is sent when a package is deployed. The default value for Primary User is JDE.

   Note: The case of machine name must also match the network ID for that machine.
   Caution: For information on supported clustering environments, see Release 9.2 on a Cluster in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools Server and Workstation Administration Guide and the clustering vendor's software documentation.

3. On Enterprise Server Revisions, select the Enterprise tab and complete or verify these fields:

   Field	Description
   Port Number	The port number value (6017) for this Enterprise Server as supplied from the JDE.INI.
   Logical Machine Name	Displays this information by default when the host type is entered. The name is case sensitive, should not exceed 15 characters, and should not contain any special characters.
   Database Type	Enter the value for your database: O - Oracle
   Server Map Data Source	Whenever you enter a host type, the Installation Planner populates this field with a default value: machinename - 920 Server Map where machinename is the name of your machine.
   Installation Path	Verify that the default value is the installation directory path to which you want to install Release 9.2 on the Enterprise Server. Make sure the value is specific to your version of the release. For example, for Release 9.2 the default path is: \JDEdwardsPPack\E920 Caution: You must change the value that defaults into the Installation Path field as shown in the screen capture above.
   Deployment Server Name	Using the visual assist button, choose the name of the Deployment Server to which this Enterprise Server is attached. A Deployment Server name appears in this field by default, but it can be changed if necessary.

   Note: If you change the port number to a value other than 6017, you must also change this setting to be synchronous between both the JDE.INI on the Enterprise Server and Development Client.
