Remote Development facility

Hi All


I am planning to setup a remote development facility. I plan to have the following:


1> Deployment Server - Win2k AS, ERP8.0, Other requirements, Visual Studio


2> Database Server - Oracle 8.1.7


3> Lan Clients.


I would like to know, whether this setup would be sufficient for a running an independent development facility,if i do not plan to keep security and do not wish to utilise the logic of Enterprise server, instead using local processing for UBE's, i.e. do not plan to use an ENTERPRISE Server at all.


After, the packages are developed and modified, they would be sent to the live setup where they would be tested on the environment with a enterprise server.


Has anyone, worked on this kind of environment? The questions follow thereby:


* How would the logins be setup when there is no Enterprise server?


* Are there any known issues, since the packages and UBE's would be tested on a MS compiler, and the live enterprise server would be a Forte compiler, would the behaviour of the UBE or package change?


* The enterprise server would only be required for running Server UBE's, BSFN's and security?


Looking forward to a quick response.


All have a nice day.

Yogi :

I've done that kind of experiment on B7321 SQL7 and it's possible though
has some severe limitations.

a) Given that there won't be any security server, you'll have to create
and maintain a SQL login (an Oracle user) for each OneWorld developer.
b) You won't be able to run server UBEs and BSFNs; and you won't have
other kernels such as replication, queues, server packages and security.
c) Remember that Forte Compiler is not supported on ERP8 W2K servers;
nevertheless if you don't plan to run any UBEs on that server then
packages wouldn't be ever necessary!

Theoretically speaking, if an UBE runs fine locally it should also be
successful on the server; but in the real world you can't rely on that.
Many ESUs and SP deal with BSFNs that run OK on workstations but fail
on the servers.
