Pega deployment manager in Pega version 7.3 within VM.
Hello,
I am trying to set up pega deployment manager in VM which provides Pega version 7.1 and in Pega exchange I could get deployment manager supported by version 7.4 onwards.
Inspite of that I installed following the instructions from the deployment guide. But I don't see any option to set up pipeline.
I tried to lok into the release notes and deployment instructions. but it not much of help.
Please guide me if I am doing anything wrong? or if is it not supported.
Thanks,

In 7.3 Deployment Manager was brand new. If truly wanting to use 7.3 you may want to consider alternatives. What is it that you are trying to achieve?

Hello Pedel,
Thank you for the response.
I was going through Architecture course, where in one of the exercise its mentioned to use PRPCServiceUtils script to deploy a RAP. Since I was not able to execute the script from the terminal, I thought to try using Deployment manager portal.
In my project I am working on Pega V8.1.3 and here we have an OOTB portal pxDeploymentManagerStudio to set up pipeline.
But I was not able to find the same in Pega V7.3 provided in VM. So I was wondering how do I set up a pipeline in Pega V 7.3.
Also do you have any recommendations for repository creation within VM?
Thanks,

Back when I implement DM in 7.X, I used 7.4 not 7.3.1. I installed JFrog on my Windows laptop having it communicate with a 7.4 VM (please do not ask for this -- it no longer exists).
Nowadays I just install the docker version of JFrog on the VM along with having each Pega tomcat node point to a postgres docker container from https://hub.docker.com/r/pegasystems/postgres-pljava-openjdk. I also install a docker version of pgAdmin4 on the VM.

Hi Pedel,
I was having the same issue with running the DM in v7.3.1.
Is there a way to run PRPCServiceUtils in VM terminals as I keep getting an error of permissions on ant etc.
It seems running a .sh file in the VM is not possible even if we make the necessary changes to the properties file?

There are always things you can do to get a script run, e.g., chmod +x *.sh or chown -R or just running as root using the "su" command.
Presumably you have JAVA_HOME set correctly. You can always install openjdk 8 yourself.
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64

Hi Lee,
I was trying this out, and while doing it I am getting an error while running the PRPCServiceUtils. Can you please help me in understanding what might be the issue here ?
I have attached the logs for reference.

What user are you when you are executing this script? What do the following commands return?
- whoami
- id
Does that user have access to: /home/architect/Documents/PRPCServiceUtils/scripts/utils/logs? What does it show when you execute?
- ls -l /home/architect/Documents/PRPCServiceUtils/scripts/utils/logs

Thank you so much Lee !
You pointed me in the right direction. I did indeed have a problem with the access permissions for the root user (architect). I made changes to it and now it works fine. Thanks a lot !!
