Progress Dynamics Configuration Utility overview

You saw the Progress Dynamics Configuration Utility (DCU) when you first installed Progress Dynamics. When you upgraded to another version of Progress Dynamics, the DCU ran again to upgrade your Repository. The DCU is the framework’s deployment tool. You can customize and extend it to deploy your applications as well.

The DCU presents upgrading Progress Dynamics applications as a wizard-style installation process. Its main task is to upgrade the Progress Dynamics Repository. However, the DCU is a Progress 4GL application. It has places where you can hook in other procedures to perform other upgrade tasks for your application.
