DPK

DPK 




The PeopleTools DPK comprises of only 4 zip files

Zip1: Bootstrap DPK
Zip2 & Zip3: PeopleTools Server DPK
Zip4: PeopleTools Client DPK

VirtualBox appliance don't package with PeopleTools. It is only available via Application DPK as part of PUM. If you still wants to setup a PeopleTools environment (using PeopleTools DPK) on VirtualBox, he/she will have to do the following steps:

1. Setup a VirtuaBox VM running Linux or Windows Guest OS (Ensure that they also create a separate disk with enough storage)
2. Ensure this VM has access to the PeopleSoft database running on a different host (provisioned separately)
3. Download the PeopleTools DPK (Linux/Windows) into the VirtualBox VM
4. Extract the bootstrap DPK and run the bootstrap to setup midtier PeopleSoft environment

One thing to note though is that, it is not mandatory to use VirtualBox for setting up the PeopleSoft environment.
With new paradigm (DPKs), they can setup PeopleSoft on a Windows host (bare-metal/Virtual) or a Linux host (bare-metal/Virtual).
