Setting up a rapid deployment environment

You can run the rapid deployment batch tools from a command line to create, configure, and launch rapid deployment projects using the IBM® WebSphere® v6.0 run-time environment. The rapid deployment tools is supported in a non-graphical user interface mode that runs from a command line.
Prerequisites

To set up a rapid deployment workspace:

  1. Open a command prompt.
  2. Specify the location on your file system that will host the rapid deployment activity. This location serves as your workspace root, and all your rapid deployment projects reside here. Define an environment variable called WORKSPACE:
    • For Windowsset WORKSPACE=<workspace root>
    • For UNIXexport WORKSPACE=<workspace root>
    Configure a rapid deployment workspace for each rapid deployment project, rather than configuring multiple rapid deployment projects inside a single rapid deployment workspace.
    Tip: To list all your environment variables and their values, run the command:
    • For Windowsset "
    • For Linuxexport -n
    • For AIXFor SolarisFor HPexport
After the WORKSPACE environment variable is defined, you can continue to configure and launch your rapid deployment workspace.
