Deployement to an ASR

Hi guys,

I have created an ASR deployment to a remote server and run it successfully. 

Details of deployment says:
COPIED nissanpoclive:/www/avm_webapps/ROOT/models/Micra.html
COPIED nissanpoclive:/www/avm_webapps/ROOT/models/xml/features/Micra_features.xml
COPIED nissanpoclive:/www/avm_webapps/ROOT/models/xml/Micra.xml

Well it says everything deployed successfully but I cannot find the avm store I was expecting to see on the remote server. I have mapped a cifs drive as follows:

\\remoteservernameA\AVM

There is nothing in the AVM folder.  No deployed foldes or files from the source wcm webproject appear in the AVM folder. 

Am I looking in the correct place for the deployed files.

I set up hte ASR as follows:
Installed Alfresco ECM server
Copied config files, such as a custom content model and xmlExtractor, over to the asr server.
Started the ECM, it starts fine.
Installed wcm server (not sure if this is needed)
started wcm server.

I then created the deployment.  I only specify the Host name in the config and accept all other defaults.  As I said, running it says it deploys successfully but I cannot find the files.   

I have also created a deployment to localhost as a test.  That also deploys fine but there is no sign of the "Store"live avm I was expecting.

Am I missing something in the install for the asr.  Wiki doco is very lean.

Regards

Brian

Hi All,

I figured it out by searching for more info in the forum.  By default the cifs server does not show live avm folders.  You have to update the file-servers-custom.xml with the following entry which will make live avm folders visible to cifs:

<avmfilesystem name="AVM">
            <virtualView stores="normal,staging,author,preview,live"/>
</avmfilesystem>
