What Type of Deployment

What Type of Deployment?

1.  If your applications are for a single or limited use, typically deployed within your own organisation, then this guide doesn't apply to you. For this type of deployment you would:

• Install LANSA on each IBM i server (if necessary), using a standard LANSA installation as described in the Installing LANSA on IBM i Guide.

• Deploy your application using the standard export / import.

2.  If you are deploying commercial packaged applications to remote locations or even deploying an application within a large organisation, you would:

• Create a custom install program that installs the LANSA run-time and your specific application components, including, potentially, non-LANSA components. To do this, you would make use of the silent install commands and guidelines in this guide.

   To support a Silent Installation, LANSA delivers:

• A set of commands, The LSI* Commands, to support installation, upgrade and modification of a LANSA system.

• Examples of how to create QINSTAPP, an install program.

• Guidelines for creating an installation DVD.

• Moving LANSA Objects between LANSA Systems and Partitions in the Introduction to LANSA for i Guide

• LANSA for the Web Installation & Configuration in the Installing LANSA on IBM i Guide

• How to Export from the IBM i in the Installing LANSA on Windows Guide

• Exporting and Importing in the LANSA for i User Guide.
