You can start with a blank plan that has no defined tasks, copy an existing plan, or
start with a plan template. You can also auto-create them by assigning applications to pipelines.
When you copy a plan or use a template, many tasks are already defined.
Complete the following steps to create a deployment plan:
-
On the Releases details page, click Create
Deployment Plan.
-
On the Create Deployment Plan window, in the Deployment plan template
list, specify the template that you want to base the plan on. The default value is
None.
-
In the Plan name field, enter the plan name.
-
In the Description field, enter the description.
-
In the Team list, select a team to manage the plan. All
teams that you are a member of are available. Team members can modify the plan
and manage tasks. The IBM® DevOps Deploy
applications that are managed by the team in Deploy are
available to assign to Deploy type
tasks.
-
To schedule a deployment for the plan, click Start time, and then select
a date and time for the deployment. Scheduled deployments automatically start at the scheduled time
if the plan contains eligible auto tasks. You can schedule a deployment for any future time.
-
In the Tags list, select tags that you want to add to the plan.
-
Click Save. If you created the plan on a
Releases details page, the plan is part of the selected
release.
After you save the plan, click Edit to modify plan
details.
Note: You can create one deployment plan as a primary linked to many secondary
deployment plans. Deployment is executed only from primary deployment
plan.
