Procedure

  1. Log in to the Deployment Host and create a directory called base under /root directory.
    Note: Ensure that you set workspace to the following directory path:
    export TCSA_WORK_SPACE=/root/base
  2. Download the latest bundle in the Deployment Host under the /root/base directory and extract the contents of the package.
    # Setting up your work space directory on your host.
    # cd $TCSA_WORK_SPACE # directory for downloading or extracting TCSA Deployer package
    
    # Extract contents from the package.
    # tar -xvf VMware-TCSA-Deployer-<VERSION>-<BUILD_ID>.tar.gz
    
    # cd tcx-deployer/
    # ls -ltr
    /root/tcx-deployer

    Note: You can ignore the fixed timestamps, typically with an older date, seen against the files in the tcx-deployer folder. There is no functional impact. The timestamps are generated as part of a secure build process.
