Assemble and Deploy

Assembly and deployment consists of the following steps:

1. On your assembly-host, while logged in as escenic, run the ece script to assemble a set of Content Engine applications:

   $ ece assemble

   This generates an enterprise archive (EAR file) which you can deploy on all your engine-hosts. The EAR file is called engine.ear, and is created in the /var/cache/escenic/ folder.

2. If you are installing everything on one host, then skip this step.

   On each engine-host, copy /var/cache/escenic/engine.ear from the assembly-host. If you have installed an SSH server on the assembly-host and SSH clients on your engine-hosts, then you can do this as follows:

   $ scp -r escenic@assembly-host-ip-address:/var/cache/escenic/engine.ear /var/cache/escenic/

   where assembly-host-ip-address is the host name or IP address of your assembly-host.

3. On each engine-host, deploy the EAR file by entering:

   $ ece deploy
