Select a Scalability Server

Use the Select Scalability Server Wizard to select a scalability server to be used for staging software packages for deployment to target computers.

To select a scalability server

  1. Select the Check packages on scalability server option. The Scalability Servers Found list view displays all scalability servers known to the current domain. This is the default setting.

    (Optional) Clear the Check packages on scalability server check box if you want to select packages available from the domain manager instead. For example, if you know that the scalability server is down or not available, clear this option to be able to pick a package from those on the domain manager. Go to Step 3.

  2. Select a scalability server.

    After a short delay, the packages staged on the selected server are displayed in the lower pane of the wizard page. Check that the payload you want to deploy is available on the selected scalability server.

    Note: If you did not select the Check packages on scalability server option, the packages list is not populated.

  3. Click Next.
  4. Enter scalability server details.
  5. Specify the credentials for the scalability server; you need to enter the user name and password.

    Note: The specified credentials are not tested at this time. The credentials will not be used until the deployment is started.

  6. Click OK.

    The scalability server is configured for staging deployment packages.
