Understanding Software Master Creation

This section discusses the software master creation process.

Use this checklist to ensure that you complete all of the processes that are necessary for creating a software master:

  • Verify that at least 1 GB of space is available for the TEMP directory of the workstation from which you use JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Product Packaging Tools.

    This memory requirement is the most memory that you might need for a software master. The actual size of the master depends on the size of the package that you create.

  • Complete the tasks in this section.

  • Define a software master using Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne CD Configuration Director.

  • Provide information about the type of master that you want to create, such as its name, release number, and so on.

  • Select the package that you want built into the master.

  • Configure change tables using Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Change Table Director.

  • Provide the target release number for the change tables.

  • Provide source environment information about the change tables.

  • Select the change tables and their versions.

  • Validate the software master definition.

  • Create the final software master, which automatically validates the master.

  • Use the software master to update JD Edwards EnterpriseOne.
