[문서] The OS／2 Warp 4 CID Rapid Deployment Tools Migration and Installa…

This redbook describes the CID (Configuration, Installation and Distribution)

enhancements developed by the NCSD (Network Computing Software

Division) Rapid Deployment Team (RDT) in Austin, Texas. It is also a

handbook that provides step-by-step guidance in all phases of the usage of

these new RDT Tools, such as Version-to-Version Tools and Tribble Tools.

Tribble Tools are also known as Enterprise Rescue Tools.

The new CID software distribution method, which is a sophisticated cloning

technique, allows you to migrate from previous OS/2 versions, such as OS/2

V2.1x and OS/2 Warp 3, to OS/2 Warp 4, as well as to accomplish pristine

installation scenarios. We use these tools in an OS/2 LAN environment with

NetView DM/2, our software distribution manager of choice.

This document is intended for workstation specialists and system technical

personnel responsible for mass distribution of OS/2 products in an OS/2 LAN.

Some knowledge of LAN redirection principles and TCP/IP is assumed. This

redbook solely focuses on the new RDT tools. If traditional CID information is

needed or information about software distribution techniques other than those

provided by the new RDT tools, you need to obtain the redbooks titled The

OS/2 Warp 4 CID Software Distribution Guide, SG24-2010 and OS/2

Installation Techniques: The CID Guide, SG24-4295. The latter book

concentrates on previous versions of OS/2 Warp 4.

This redbook provides a broad understanding of new software distribution

features introduced with the Rapid Deployment Tools that were not previously

available.
