Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.
- If you don't already have one, generate a COBOL archive (.car) file by either deploying a service interface from a
Visual COBOL project or using the
imtkmake command.
- Copy the
.mfdeploy file, located by default in
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL\deploy (Windows) or
$COBDIR/deploy (UNIX), to the parent directory of the
.car file that you want to deploy. For example, if the
.car file is in
%COBDIR%\deploy\test
(Windows) or
$COBDIR/deploy/test
(UNIX), the
.mfdeploy file must be copied to
%COBDIR%\deploy
(Windows) or
$COBDIR/deploy (UNIX).
- Open the
.mfdeploy file in a text editor, and edit the MFES_SERVER line. By default this is set to ESDEMO. Change it to specify the name of
the enterprise server you want to use, as follows:
MFES_SERVER=myserver
- Deploy the
.car file using the
mfdepinst command. For example, to deploy the services in
myService.car, enter the following at a command prompt:
mfdepinst myService.car
See the
mfdepinst command reference topic for complete information.
