You can read the walk-through without actually performing the steps, or you can perform them as you read along. If you want to perform the steps as we go, do the following before starting:
Create a directory somewhere on your system and name it: helloWorld.
Within this helloWorld directory, create a sub-directory and name it hello.
Within the subdirectory create and save five text-type files and name them artifact1.txt, artifact2.txt, and so on.
These five files represent the artifacts that you will be deploying. You will be creating a component that contains these files.
NOTE
If you want to perform the exercise steps, ensure that you have an active agent installed.
