Hi Mickael,

Any OSGi framework with the ACE management agent bundle installed is a targ=
et. This way you can potentially use ACE to provision to any kind of enviro=
nment. There is also the ace-launcher however. This is basically a Felix in=
stallation with the management agent installed. You can simply start the ja=
r using java -jar and it will start acting as a target. You can find the ac=
e-launcher in the store folder of the devserver, or in the target folder of=
 the org.apache.ace.launcher project.

For example: java -jar ace-launcher.jar identification=3Dmytarget discovery=
=3Dhttp://[devserver-ip]:8080

When you want to use targets on Amazon EC2 nodes, you can also start nodes =
from the UI. You do need to configure your account first in conf/org.apache=
.ace.nodelauncher.amazon.cfg though.

Hi,

I've downloaded the Apache Ace distriubution (devserver) on one machine
that will be the server and I've launched it using the batch file run.bat.
I can access the WEB UI on the server. I would like to create a target on
another machine.

Should I download the same distribution (i.e. devserver) on the other
machine? If yes, how to install Ace as a target and not as a server? What
is the purpose of the devgateway distribution?

I know there is a possibility to install Ace as a feature on Apache Karaf
but I can't find this feature in the distribution. I can see it in the
trunk but I don't know if I can use it.

Thanks,
Mickael
