SDM remote gui

[#1]

Hi,

I need to apply some sda patches to my java engine running on unix and I guess I cant use JSPM for this and need to use SDM directly.

Can I use an SDM remote gui from my windows PC to connect to SDM on unix server like in the case of JSPM? Do i have to copy the entire SDM directory to the PC and start StartGui.bat?

Please suggest.

Thanks

Hell Cyrus,

You could do it by coping but you’ll have to edit the scripts. Much easier way is to export the display to the windows machine, where X-Server is installed. That is the way I do it on my machines.

Second way is to deploy the deployment components using shell commands like:

SDM/program/sdm.sh deploy file=xxx.sda updateversions=all

Please refer to the manual in the SDM folder:

SDM/program/doc/ SDMCommandLineDoc_en_final.pdf

If you choose to copy the SDM folder and run it from Windows machine copy the following folder: SDM/program/*

In the SDM/program edit each .bat file and replace the UNIX paths with the local windows paths and also change the JDK path. I just copied the SDM folder from Linux machine and after the changes in the bat files the GUI is working. Still I recommend you to export the display if possible.
