About deploying a ViewApp

You deploy object instances for three reasons:

• Testing.

• Placing the application into production to process field data.

• Updating an existing application with changes.

When you are ready to deploy, make sure the following conditions are met:

• Bootstrap software is installed on the target computers.

• The objects being deployed are not in an error state in the Galaxy database.

• You created, configured, and checked in objects to the Galaxy.

• Objects are assigned to a host.

• The object's host is already deployed. A cascade deploy operation, which deploys a hierarchy of objects, deploys all objects in the correct order. A cascade operation deploys an object’s host before the object is deployed.

• Any associated script libraries are ready for use on the target computer.
