Preparing for the PeopleTools Client DPK Deployment

To obtain and extract the PeopleTools Client DPK:

  1. Go to the download location for the PeopleSoft PeopleTools DPKs, and download only the last zip file to a location known as DPK_INSTALL on a Microsoft Windows computer.

    The last zip file, for example Filename_4of4.zip, is the PeopleSoft PeopleTools client DPK.

    See Obtaining the PeopleSoft PeopleTools Patch DPKs, for the filename syntax of the DPK zip files.

  2. Extract the downloaded zip file, which yields another zip file.

  3. Extract the resulting zip file to a local or shared directory; for example C:\tools_client.
