== Distribution package ==
== Scenarios ==
The following list describes common deployment scenarios where [[Platform_Team/Harmonic_Distribution|Harmonic Distribution]] might be useful. The final model might be an intermediate variant of them.
=== Online peers ===
There is a [[#Dedicated_online_school_server|master server]] located in the Internet in highly accessible place for any maintaining work. The main task is supporting users that are connected to the server all time.
Possible options for deployment packages are:
* Attach proper [[#Repository|repository]] and install client sides packages. Client packages need to be preconfigured to connect to the Internet located server.
* The same but with special [[#XO image|XO image]] that is ready to work right after flashing a XO.
=== Dedicated online school server ===
A machine that has Internet connectivity and is intended to serve clients, e.g.,:
* [[Platform_Team/Harmonic_Distribution/Software#Software_Map|base software]] updates,
* [[Sugar Network]] content,
* collect usage statistics,
* provide OLPC's XO anti-thief support,
* backup functionality for client.
Server might be master (the main server) or node (replication of master). For nodes, the synchronization process with master will happen on regular basis using current Internet connection.
Possible options for deployment packages are:
* Attach proper [[#Repository|repository]] and install preconfigured server sides packages.
=== Dedicated offline school server ===
The same server as [[#Dedicated online school server|online]] one with a difference that it doesn't have Internet connection and needs to be synchronized using [[#Offline synchronization|sneakernet]].
Possible options for deployment packages are:
* Attach proper [[#Repository|repository]] and install preconfigured server sides packages.
=== Peer as a school server ===
The case when one of peers can play a role of either [[#Dedicated_online_school_server|online]] or [[#Dedicated_offline_school_server|offline]] school server.
Possible options for deployment packages are:
* Attach proper [[#Repository|repository]] and install client and server sides packages. Client packages need to be preconfigured to connect to the same peer as a server. Server packages need to be preconfigured for serve clients around using existing network interface, i.e., ethernet or wireless ad-hoc.
* The same but with special [[#XO image|XO image]] that is ready to work right after flashing a XO.
== Deployment packages ==
=== Repository ===
It might be either on of [[Sweets Distribution]] repositories or a repository derived from [[Sweets Distribution]] one and preconfigured.
=== XO image ===
Regular XO image created with including packages from proper [[#Repository|repository]].
== Synchronization ==
Only server need to be synchronized.
=== Online synchronization ===
=== Offline synchronization ===
The process is based on [[Wiki:Sneakernet|sneakernet]].
