Hi,

I am aware SDM is used to deploy files. When/Why do we use these files for SDM:

1)RemoteGui.bat

2)StartSDM.bat

3)StartServer.bat

Rgrds,

Hi there,

1)RemoteGui.bat => Remote client to SDM - Used to deploy files.

2)StartSDM.bat => Start the SDM Server - Starting SDM in this mode is deprecated.

3)StartServer.bat => Start the SDM Server

Regards,

Luciano

Thanks. So can I open RemoteGui.bat and use that also to deploy files.

If StartSDM.bat is deprecated, then the version which we should use is StartServer.bat ?

Rgrds,

Gandolf

HI Gandolf,

You can use the Softweare Deployment Manager's Remote Gui to deploy new Software Deployment Units (SDUs) .The SDM takes us through the individual steps, from selecting the Software Component Archive (SCA) and the Software Deployment Archive (SDA), to actually deploying the software in the target directory.

For starting/stopping the SDM, we have two options:

1) Managing the SDM with the SAP Management Console

2) Operating the SDM from the Command Line

For details, please see

<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/41/a30f31e2cf45d09ad5aac66b71f896/content.htm">Starting and Stopping the Software Deployment Manager</a>

the batch files, StopServer.bat and StartServer.bat are used via the command line to start and stop the SDM.

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Siddhartha
