Install or update with Deployment Center

You can use Deployment Center to perform an installation or an update. For instructions about using Deployment Center, see the Deployment Center documentation available on the Support Center.

Use these instructions if you already have Teamcenter foundation and Active Workspace installed on the target machine onto which you are installing the kit. If you do not have any software installed on the target machine, follow the Installing and Using Deployment Center instructions in the Deployment Center documentation. After you perform those tasks, you can perform this procedure.

Procedure

1. On the target machine, map a drive to the Deployment Center software repository.

   For example, if the Deployment Center is installed on C:\apps, on the target machine, map a drive to C:\apps\deployment_center\repo\software.

   Caution You must map a drive to the Deployment Center software repository, or the installation will fail.

2. Log onto the Deployment Center to scan and send the current configuration of your existing environment to the Deployment Center.

   Note See Register Environments in the Deployment Center documentation to send the current configuration to the Deployment Center.

3. Download the Active Workspace software kit from the Support Center and copy it to the Deployment Center software repository.

   Note

   Electronic Work Instructions is fully integrated with the Active Workspace installation kit. You do not need to perform any extra steps to install these products.

4. Refer to Deploy Software in the Deployment Center documentation. When you reach the Applications tab, scroll through the list and select the workspaces that you want to install or update.

   When you select a workspace or component, the Deployment Center automatically selects all dependencies associated with that workspace.

5. Refer to Deploy Software in the Deployment Center documentation. When you reach the Components tab, click Show all parameters and type a unique value in the Port Settings field.

   Caution You must change the port number for before you install or update software Teamcenter Easy Plan, Electronic Work Instructions, or Next Generation Planning on the Deployment Center. If you do not change this value, the Deployment Center fails during future installations and updates. Each kit that you install must use a unique port number for the Deployment Center.

6. Follow the steps in Run the deployment scripts in the Deployment Center documentation to run the scripts for Active Workspace.
