About this Guide

• This guide provides instructions for planning and deploying LANSA applications on a Linux Server. It does not include instructions or guidance in designing or creating applications with LANSA.

• The contents are written for technical support staff and LANSA developers.

• We recommend the use of the Korn shell (ksh) or Bourne shell (sh). All examples of Linux commands in this guide use the Korn shell.
