Choose a Host Type and Connection Type
The remoting functionality in Deploy and Release uses the Overthere framework to manipulate files and execute commands on remote hosts. To determine which type of Overthere host to create and which connection type to use, follow these guidelines described in Remoting plugin and Overthere framework.
Connect Deploy to Your Infrastructure
This tutorial describes how to connect Deploy to the host on which your middleware is running.
Introduction to the Remoting Functionality
Deploy and Release both have remoting functionality that enables them to manipulate files and execute commands on remote hosts. This functionality is provided by the Remoting plugin, which uses the open-source Java framework. For more information, see Overthere.
Ping a Satellite
To check the connection between Deploy and a satellite, you can ping the satellite. This will test the entire network and application stack and check your parameters.

SSH is supported for connectivity to Unix, Microsoft Windows, and z/OS hosts. This topic describes common configuration errors that can occur when using Deploy or Release with the SSH protocol.
Using Cifs, Smb, WinRM, and Telnet
Remoting functionality for Deploy and Release supports the CIFS and SMB protocols for file manipulation and WinRM and Telnet for process execution. For more information, see Deploy Remoting plugin and Release Remoting plugin.
Using SSH
The remoting functionality for Deploy and Release supports the SSH protocol for connecting to a Unix, Microsoft Windows, or z/OS hosts. To connect to a remote host using the SSH protocol, you must to install an SSH server on that remote host. For more information, see Remoting plugin and SSH protocol.
