IBM Deploying the DB2 Ruby application, Example 4-28 Contents of rubydeployment directory

We placed the deployment script under our deployment directory /ruby_deploy. Example 4-28shows the contents of the ruby_deploy directory, which now has all the files for deployment.

Deploying the DB2 Ruby application

The deployment process for the DB2 ruby application involves transfer of the deployment package to the target system, uncompressing/extracting files in the package and then executing the deployment script. See Example 4-30.
