Hello,

I am attempting to automate the creation of Tenants on an on--premise server. I found a PowerShell script that looked promising, but it is using PX.Data.Tools.Dll that I can’t find installed anywhere, even with the developer Debugging Tools installed. 

Does anyone know if automated tenant creation is possible?

 

Thanks,

Mark

I ended up using ac.exe CLI to create tenant and load a snapshot.

The data tools may have been a red herring. The info that I found to automate instance creation pointed to using PXInstanceHelper, but the methods that were mentioned don’t exist in the current version. I’m starting to wonder if this is old functionality that no longer exists. Specifically, PXInstanceHelper.CreateTenant and PXInstanceHelper.LoadSnapshot. 

Any guidance on how to automate these tasks would be greatly appreciated.
