Deploy to Multiple Computers with Application Level External Settings

To deploy your WAR or EAR file to more than one computer, you copy the file and configuration locations to the other computer.

Follow these steps:

1. Create a folder location on each other computer where you are going to copy the files.
2. Copy the following directories from the computer where you installed the product:

   <install_folder>\deployable
   

   <install_folder>\util
   

   Note: If you created additional copies of the WAR or EAR file, and you placed them in another directory, copy that directory to the other computer with, or in place of the deployable directory.

3. Copy the Application Level External Configuration directories to the other computer.

   Note: You created these directories with the configuration tool. The default path is <CA OM Web Viewer Home Var>/<WAR/EAR Name>

   Important! If possible, verify that the paths to these directories are the same on each computer. This verification helps streamline your maintenance procedure.

4. Consider the following example of configuration paths and context names:

   Computer A

   • Web App Name 1: CAOMWebViewer12_US
   • Context Path 1: CAOMWebViewer12_US
   • Application Level External Configuration Path 1: C:\Program Files\CA\ CA_OM_Web_Viewer_Base\CAOMWebViewer12_US
   • Web App Name 2: CAOMWebViewer12_CA
   • Context Path 2: CAOMWebViewer12_CA
   • Application Level External Configuration Path 2: C:\Program Files\CA\ CA_OM_Web_Viewer_Base\CAOMWebViewer12_CA

   Computer B

   • Web App Name 1: CAOMWebViewer12_US
   • Context Path 1: CAOMWebViewer12_US
   • Application Level External Configuration Path 1: C:\Program Files\CA\ CA_OM_Web_Viewer_Base\CAOMWebViewer12_US
   • Web App Name 2: CAOMWebViewer12_CA
   • Context Path 2: CAOMWebViewer12_CA
   • Application Level External Configuration Path 2: C:\Program Files\CA\ CA_OM_Web_Viewer_Base\CAOMWebViewer12_CA

     Note: The Application Level External Configuration location matches on each computer.

5. Deploy the product with each deployable file.

   Note: Do not mix up the _US EAR or WAR with the _CA EAR or WAR when you deploy it to the second computer.
