Appendix B Deploying the PC Client

Along with the initial load, Nortel delivers the following:

Java Network Launch Protocol (JNLP) file: pcclient.jnlp

Zip file containing latest code resources: pcclientcode.zip

System administrators need to perform the following steps to deploy
Multimedia PC Client loads.

At the management pc,

1

Unzip the zip fle containing the code resources
(pcclientcode.zip) onto any machine connected to the network.
Make sure that you preserve the paths (for example, the
checkbox “Use folder names” in Winzip should be checked).

2

Identify the Provisioning Module server(s) on which to deploy the
load.

3

Customization of the JNLP file (pcclient.jnlp) is possible by
modifying certain attributes. For example, if this update is
considered to be a critical one, the critical value can be checked.
If end users are not prompted for confirmation when updates are
applied, then the confirm value can be assigned as false.
Modification of title and icon for the confirmation dialog is also
possible.

4

Use a secure File Transfer Protocol (sFTP) tool to perform the
following tasks:

a

Connect to the server.

b Upload the pcclient.jnlp to

/IMS/web/data/web/webapps/prov/pcclient.jnlp

c

Upload the unzipped code resource files to
/IMS/web/data/web/webapps/prov/pcclientclode.

It is possible to perform steps 1 - 4 directly on the Provisioning servers
without FTP.
