Hello List:
My configuration is this:
1. OneWorld Xe (Base), SP21 on Windows 2000 Advance Server
2. SQL Server 2000 SP 2.
3. About 500+ users around the world, connecting to OW using Citrix, running 24 x 7
4. Development in progress
5. Full packages build every day (different pathcodes)
6. Package deployments every day.
For the deployment of the packages, we have one hour where we kick all users off of the system. This give us the safety to deploy packages clean.
Full packages to the Citrix Servers are taking less than 3 minutes using the Silent Option (Thanks to Tim Allen for the lead). Deployment to the Enterprise Servers are taking 10 minutes to complete.
In general, we are using only 15 minutes for package deployments every day. This is working very, very good and the project is very smooth.
But, I'm facing more and more pressure from management to deploy packages without kicking users off of the Citrix Servers.
Does anybody knows which will be the best approach for that?
I know I can deploy packages to the Enterprise Server without kicking users off the system, but only to those pathcodes not being used. But Citrix server are a different beast.
Does anybody has a good idea to approach this dillema.
Thank you all
