5.15 Initialize the Partition on the Deployment System

This step is only required for Deployment Systems with Linux build environment.

Before you can deliver any objects to a Linux deployment system, you must initialize the partition on the Deployment System. Ensure the following before you initialize the partition, or attempt to use 5.16 Deliver To:

• The Remote Deployment System is installed and at the same LANSA version and EPC level as the Visual LANSA on Windows installation.

• TCP/IP is set up and active so that the workstation can access the remote system.

• You have a login to connect to the remote system and use the target LANSA installation.

Right click on the Remote System in the Repository tab and choose Partition Initialization, then select the appropriate checkboxes and press Okay. If you are deploying web applications ensure the partition is enabled for the web.

When starting a connection to a remote system, the Visual LANSA Editor attempts to use the same login used for the Visual LANSA session. If this does not connect successfully, a connection dialog will prompt for the connection details. This will occur the first time Deliver To is used for a Remote System and every time a joblog is reviewed on a remote system. The user be defaulted to the last user to connect to a remote system on the connection dialog.
