To deploy a real-time project, you must specify the hosts on which the project can be deployed. For Linux hosts, you must establish a secure connection to the hosts. Once a host has been configured, it will be listed in the Preconfigured Hosts list near the top of the window and can be selected in future sessions.
To set up hosts
- Click Set up Hosts and Security, located near the bottom of the Project Deployment Manager window.
-
Enter the name or IP address of a machine on which the project will be run. The host machine must have TS Quality installed.
Note: If you are setting up a remote Windows host, ensure that your User ID is in that machine's administrator group, that the remote machine is on the same network as your machine, and that the Remote Registry service is running. If this is not the case, you can manually deploy.
-
Optionally, enter the port number on which the host machine accepts Director requests. The port is not used during the deployment process, but entering a port is useful for checking to see that Director services are running on that host/port combination. If no port is specified, the default is zero. If you are setting up a host in order to access your tables, accept the default port.
Note: If you run network security scans, the ports used by the Director, Matcher and Cleanser servers must be removed from the security scans. Failure to do so may cause their processes to be terminated.
- Click Add. The host is added to the list of deployment hosts in the left pane of the window. If you entered a port, any running Director, cleanser, or matcher services found on that host will be added to the list of services in the right pane.
- Add additional hosts if desired.
- To remove a host, select the host in the left pane and click Remove. The servers associated with that host will be automatically removed from the right pane.
-
When you have finished adding or removing hosts, click OK, or, if you are setting up a Linux host, click the Security tab of the Setup window.
When the Project Deployment Manager window opens, notice that the hosts have been added to the list in the top pane, but they are not yet deployable. To continue setting up a project, next specify target directories.
