J.D. Edwards’ OneWorld B73.3 7
Windows Terminal Server (TSE), and data servers. During the installation
process you can add other Deployment Servers (multitier deployment).
The Enterprise Server - is one or more servers that operates as the data
storage and can run the centralized logic. OneWorld Enterprise Server is
currently supporting the following database management systems:
• IBM DB2 on AS/400 hardware platform
• Oracle Database Management System on both UNIX and Windows NT
platforms
• MS SQL server DBMS on Windows NT platforms.
The IBM hardware platforms currently supporting OneWorld Enterprise Server
are:
• IBM - AS/400 using the OS/400 operating system
• IBM - RS/6000 using the UNIX operating system
• IBM - Netfinity using Microsoft NT operating system
Workstations - are PCs that have OneWorld client software installed and
provide the interface between the user and data. The Workstation works two
ways:
Direct Connect Processing - allows a user to distribute data and logic while
connected to the Enterprise Server by TCP/IP protocol.
Store and Forward Processing - allows a user to work on a workstation that is
disconnected from a server.
These components can exist within a single computer or across several different
computers. The single computer environment is recommended only for training
and demonstrations (Demo Junior).
The actual install process consists of six general steps:
1. Installing the basic software requirements for the Deployment Server and the
Enterprise Server, such as Windows NT Server 4 and Service Packs,
Microsoft Internet Services, Microsoft Access, Visual C++, SQL Server or
Oracle for Windows NT. For specific versions see 5.4, “Hardware and
Software Requirements for J.D. Edwards’ OneWorld” on page 51.
2. Installing the basic software requirements for the workstations, such as
Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows NT Workstation, Microsoft Access,
Visual C++ (only required for programming), SQL Server Client or Oracle
Client.
3. Installing OneWorld on the deployment server from the CD-ROM:
• CD1 - copies the path codes for the environment you want to install
• CD2 - copies the component you need for building your database
4. Setting up the installation plans for the enterprise server by running the
Installation Planner. OneWorld Installation Planner provides different
environments for different purposes:
• PRT733 - Pristine Environment
Contains pristine objects that cannot be modified but are used for
comparison with other environment. This is used for disaster recovery and
response line problem solving.
