Deploying in Standalone Mode

This section assumes that the user running the script has administrative permission. The script includes the options in the following table:

Deployment	Script Commands
Install the PeopleTools client software in standalone mode.	SetupPTClient.bat -t
The setup script deploys to drive C by default. To deploy to a different drive, you can use the option -d <drive> This option installs all specified software (Change Assistant, Change Impact Analyzer, PeopleSoft Test Framework), installation and temporary directories, and log files to the specified drive. The drive can be any valid local or mapped shared drive.	SetupPTClient.bat -t -d <drive> For example, to install to drive E: SetupPTClient.bat -t -d E
Install the PeopleTools client software in standalone mode and enable logging.	SetupPTClient.bat -t -l
Apply CPUs for JDK and the Oracle Database Client on an existing PeopleTools client environment. This usage requires the presence of the PT-MW-DPK.	For information on using the PT-MW-DPK, see PeopleTools Middleware Deployment Package Installation (PeopleSoft PeopleTools 8.63).

To deploy the PeopleTools Client DPK in SA mode:

1. Verify that the Microsoft Windows folders options are set to show known file extensions.

   Hidden file extensions may interfere with the script. To show file extensions, for example:

   1. Open Windows Explorer and select Tools, Folder Options.

      Note:

      Depending upon the Microsoft Windows operating system, you may use a different method to set the folder options.

   2. On the Folder Options dialog box, select the View tab.

   3. Verify that the check box for Hide extensions for known file types is not selected, as shown in this example:

      Figure 5-1 Folder Options dialog box: View tab

      

   4. Click OK to close the box.

2. Open a command prompt, running as administrator, and change directory to the C:\tools_client directory.

   The tools_client directory includes various sub-directories, and the following files:

   • SetupPTClient.bat

     The interactive script that installs the PeopleSoft PeopleTools components such as Application Designer, Change Assistant, Change Impact Analyzer, and PeopleSoft Test Framework.

   • readme.txt

3. Run the setup script with the following command to install to drive C.

   For other script options, see the table at the beginning of this section.

   SetupPTClient.bat -t

4. Answer y (yes) at the following prompt to deploy the PeopleTools Client.

   If you are running the script after having deployed the PeopleTools Client previously, and you want to install Change Assistant, Change Impact Analyzer, or PeopleSoft Test Framework without deploying the PeopleTools Client again, answer n (no), and continue with step 9.

   ****** SetupPTClient started at 11:42:38.91 ******
   set logger to true
    Do you want to deploy PeopleTools client? [Y/N]: y
   

5. Specify the RDBMS type for the PeopleTools Client that you want to deploy.

    Enter your choice [1-2] : 1
   

6. Specify the installation directory, referred to as PSHOME, for the PeopleTools Client, or press ENTER to accept the default directory, C:\PT<release_number>_Client_<database_type>, for example C:\PT8.63.02_Client_ORA.

   Please specify the PSHOME for the PeopleTools Client 
   [C:\PT8.63.02_Client_ORA]:

7. Specify whether you want to supply configuration details at the following prompt.

   Do you want to configure PeopleTools client? [Y/N]: 

   If you answer n (no), you do not want to configure the PeopleTools client, continue with step 9.

   If you answer y (yes), specify the information for your environment at the following prompts:

   Database Name: HCM92
   Server Name: example.com
   UserId: VP1
   Connect ID: people
   Connect Password: 
   Retype Connect Password: 

   Note:

   When you enter the password, the script does not echo the password or any masking characters as you type.

   • Specify the database name and database server to connect to.

   • The connect ID a valid database-level ID that the PeopleSoft system uses to make the initial connection to the database.

   • For User ID, specify a PeopleSoft user ID, such as VP1 or PS, that has permission to access the database from the PeopleTools client, Application Designer, and so on.

8. Select the type of deployment at the following prompt:

   See the definitions in Understanding the Standalone Mode Deployment.

   Please make your selection for the Tools Client deployment:

13. Review the setup steps.

    The messages you see depend upon your choices.

    Starting Tools Client Deployment!
    Deploying PeopleTools 8.63.02 Client in C:\PT8.63.02_Client_ORA
    Configuring PeopleTools 8.63.02 Client
    Deployment of PeopleTools Client Complete.
    Tools Client Deployment Ended.
    ***** SetupPTClient ended at 11:35:08.91 ******
    Please review C:\PeopleSoft\PTClientDeploy.log for additional information.

14. To review the log file for the setup process, go to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp\PeopleSoft\PTClientDeploy.log.

    For example, if the USERPROFILE environment variable is C:\Users\username, the log file location is C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\PeopleSoft\PTClientDeploy.log.

    Note:

    If you used the -d <drive> option to deploy to a drive other than drive C:\, the log file is found in <drive>:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\PeopleSoft\PTClientDeploy.log and creates the directory if it does not exist.

    The PTClientDeploy.log file includes a record of each of the steps in the PeopleTools Client deployment process. If any of the steps fail, a detailed error or warning message will be written to the same log file.
