📄️ Use Control Tasks
Control tasks are actions that you can perform on middleware or middleware resources. For example, checking the connection to a host is a control task. When you trigger a control task, Deploy starts a task that executes the steps associated with the control task.
📄️ Create a Custom Control Task
You can define control tasks on configuration items (CIs) to execute actions from the Deploy GUI or CLI. Control tasks specify a list of steps to be executed in order. There are two methods to parameterize control tasks:
📄️ Schedule a Control Task
Deploy uses a scheduling mechanism to run various system administration jobs on top of the repository, such as garbage collection, purge policies, and so on. You can also use this mechanism to run specific control tasks on configuration items (CIs) stored in the repository.
