OpenDeploy questions - posted on behalf of Kapil

I have a simple question, the moment I start OpenDeploy Service on Development and Production Server, deployement should be completed cause this is the manual way of using OpenDeploy. Am I right here?

Also, I use: remote_directory=C:/IBM HTTP Server/htdocs/test
on the Development Server in the iwodclient.cfg file. Now this path is correct on the Production Server, but should I write the path like this: remote_directory=//HOSTNAME/IBM HTTP Server/htdocs/test

Thanks

kapil,

I was unable to underdstand your question. Could you please re-phrase your question and re-post it here.

The question is somewhat awkwardly worded, but I'll try to respond.

First - clearly this is OpenDeploy 4.x (or 3.x ?) and not OpenDeploy 5.x (for all those trying to follow along at home :-)

In OpenDeploy 4.x there is only one server - and it is on the receiving side - in this case "Production Server". It should be started, and then left to run continuously.

On the sending side (Development) - there is a CLT, iwdeploy, which when run will initiate a deployment based on the command line arguments provided and the contents of the configuration file being processed. By default I believe (it's been a while) that the deployment configuration file is called "iwodclient.cfg".

Now - hoping that the above clarifies things with respect to the first paragraph of the question, let's move on to the second question.

If the receiving host (Production) has a C:/IBM HTTP Server/htodcs/test path on it - then that should be fine to use as the value for remote_directory because it is evaluated on the receiving side of the connection.

Hope that helps,

PS: It's been a while since I've used OpenDeploy 4.x so it's possible I may have some of the details wrong - but in essence the above should be correct.
