Entering Deployment Server Information

Once a plan location is specified, complete the information for the Deployment Server. You are given the option to enter a new Deployment Server or choose an existing one. For most situations, you will have a tiered Deployment Server for the remote location.

To enter Deployment Server information:

1. At the Installation Planner prompt asking if you want to enter new Deployment Server information, click the OK button to add a Deployment Server.

   

2. On Deployment Server Revisions, complete these fields:

   Field	Description
   Machine Usage	Displays the default value of 15 to indicate that this is a Deployment Server.
   Machine Name	Enter the name of your Deployment Server. The name is case sensitive, should not exceed 15 characters, and should not contain any special characters.
   Description	Enter a description of the machine name. This name includes the location with which this Deployment Server is associated, and whether or not it is the primary server.
   Release	Enter the Release 9.2 release number that you are installing, or use the visual assist button to choose one from the list. For example, E920 is the current release.
   Host Type	Displays the default value of 50 to indicate that the server type is an Intel NT.
   Location	Displays the default location chosen for this plan.
   Primary User	Enter the user to whom email is sent when a package is deployed. The default for Primary User is jde920. This is also the UNIX user ID that is used to install Release 9.2 on the Enterprise Server. For example, JDE.

3. On the Deployment tab, complete these fields:

   Field	Description
   Primary Deployment Server	Enter the hierarchy of the servers. Type 0 (zero) if a primary Deployment Server for the location exists and this is a secondary server. Type 1 if this is the primary Deployment Server for the location.
   Server Share Path	Enter the server share path where you installed Release 9.2 on your Deployment Server. Make sure that this path is specific to your version of the release. For example, for Release 9.2, the path ends with\E920.
