Understanding the Platform Pack

The Platform Pack installs these major components:

• JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Server code

• JD Edwards EnterpriseOne database files

Note:

Assuming the installation programs are run on different machines, you can concurrently install these JD Edwards EnterpriseOne servers:

• Deployment Server

• Platform Pack on Enterprise Server and/or Database Server

• HTML Server

This can decrease the overall time it takes to complete the installation.

Note:

To reinstall any Enterprise Server components, refer to Rerunning the Platform Pack Installer.

This table lists the mandatory and optional components of the Platform Pack installation:

Server	Mandatory Component	Optional Components
Enterprise Server	JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Foundation	ES Production ES Prototype ES Development ES Pristine
Database Server	System Database	Production Databases Prototype Databases Development Databases Pristine Databases

New for Tools and Application Releases for 9.2, customer must build a full package after the Platform Pack completes. Customers will not be able to build an update package out of the box.

Note:

Although the Platform Pack will no longer deliver packages, it still delivers the Package Repository and the package definition records because these are needed in order to run services. The Platform Pack will not deliver the source and include files (for example, obj and lib) for the package. The directories are delivered in the path code on the Deployment Server, just not as a package.
