Re: installing v6 - warning when using ghost images

Hi Joe, 

I think there is an option to create the server resources in the workspace 
in v601.  In the workspace preferences look under server, IIRC it is on 
the first page there.   I can't say if it will do what you want or not but 
for me it doesn't seem to hurt ;-)

Re: [WDSCI-L] installing v6 - warning when using ghost images






Thanks for the heads up, Don.  I'll make a note of this; the ghost machine
is already out, so I can't do the "easy" fix, but I'll be sure to bring
along the second fix on the morning of setup.

Man, I still like V5.1 Express.  I like the fact that each workspace has 
its
own setup, and they don't share with other workspaces, as opposed to the
mass shared server space of V6+.  The first time I saw one client's
application start up when I was working on a different client's project, I
almost freaked out.

Hi Joe,

Just a word of caution when using ghost images.  When you install WDSC, 

it

creates a default instance of the WAS 6.1 test server.  The config files
for the test server are created with the hostname of the PC where the
install was done.  When the ghost image is then copied to each PC, the
config files contains an incorrect hostname and the test server won't
start (we always run into this at COMMON and the System i Technical
conferences).
