Re: Deploying Rational and ACS from a central location

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mark

It is possible to do this - it was done at our company - but I strongly 
advise against it - ACS is meant to be deployed, not installed - a 
central location can be used where the main jar file lives.

One issue we have here due to this method is that updates just don't 
happen - the central IT enablement group really doesn't think in those 
terms here.

I'll let someone else speak to RDi, except to say that installation and 
updates of RDi use the Installation Manager - the central distribution 
COULD use a repository on the network system, after that I haven't tried 
to figure this out.

There are several documents for this - esp. for RDi, there's a text or 
HTML file with a slew of these installation scenarios. I think I 
recently saw something for ACS.

Good luck - and please let us know what y'all come up with - it'd help 
everyone.

Regards
Vern

They are using InTune to push applications to all computers and users will sign in with the O365 credentials to the laptops and be managed by the Azure Active Directory. My understanding is this is fairly standard stuff these days to manage a large group of PCs.

I've tried to do some googling on how to do this but haven't come up with much that is understandable to me. Does anyone here have a link to a resource describing how to accomplish this?
