Discover middleware using the Deploy CLI
This topic covers using the discovery feature to automatically create an accurate model of your infrastructure in Deploy. During discovery, Deploy scans your middleware environment and creates configuration items (CIs) in the repository. Discovery is part of the Deploy plugin suite, and the exact discovery functionality available depends on the middleware platforms that are present in your environment.
Execute tasks from the Deploy CLI
This topic covers how Deploy manages multiple deployments simultaneously, each referred to as a task. Users can instruct Deploy to start, stop, or cancel a task. Once a task is completed or canceled, it is moved to the task archive, where Deploy stores its task history. You can query the task archive for tasks, examine the tasks steps and logs, or export the task archive to an XML file.
Export items from or import items into the repository
This topic covers the repository object in the Deploy command-line interface (CLI) allows you to export the Deploy repository tree to a ZIP file that can be imported into the same Deploy server or into another Deploy server. The ZIP file contains all configuration item (CI) properties, including artifact files.
Get started with the Deploy CLI
You can use the Deploy command-line interface (CLI) to control and manage multiple features, such as discovering middleware topology, setting up environments, importing packages, and performing deployments. The CLI connects to the Deploy server using the standard HTTP/HTTPS protocol, so it can be used remotely without firewall issues.
Log analysis tool in Deploy
This topic describes how to configure Deploy to work with the log analysis tool.
Logging in Deploy
This topic provides information about the logs in Deploy.
Objects Available in the Deploy CLI
This topic provides information about the Deploy command-line interface (CLI) objects that you can use to interact with the Deploy server.
Troubleshooting the Deploy CLI
This page describes common Deploy CLI errors and their solutions.
Types used in the Deploy CLI
This topic provides an overview of the types that are available in the Deploy command-line interface (CLI).
Use a script to execute commands
This topic provides information on executing commands as part of a deployment using Deploy. By creating a new deployable type and defining behaviors in the synthetic.xml and xl-rules.xml files, you can run scripts during deployment and rollback processes.
Work with configuration items in the Deploy CLI
This topic provides information on using the Deploy command-line interface (CLI) with configuration items (CIs).
Write script rules
A script rule adds steps and checkpoints to a plan by running a Jython script that calculates which steps and checkpoints to add.
Writing Jython scripts for Deploy
You can use Jython scripting to extend or customize Deploy actions, events, or components. This topic describes best practices for writing, organizing and packaging your Jython scripts.
