Deploying configuration data using the CDT

About this task

To deploy your configuration data:

Procedure

  1. Compare the two databases (by choosing the Compare icon). For this detailed procedure, see Comparing source and target data using the CDT.
  2. From the Comparison Results tree, select the entities you want to deploy.

    The available options are as follows:

    • For the entire database, choose the Sterling Order Management System Software Configuration icon. This option is only available if you compared the entire database in step 1.
    • For a specific configuration group, choose the Configuration Group icon.
    • For a specific driver entity, choose the Driver Entity icon.
    • For a specific record listed under the driver table, choose the Add Record icon for that record.
  3. From the Comparison Results action bar, choose the Deploy icon.
    • If the deployment succeeds, the Status panel displays a success message, the data is committed to your target database, and the cache is updated as specified in the httpurl field described in Table 1.
    • If the deployment fails, the Status panel indicates the errors to resolve and no data is committed to the target database.
    Note: As the driver for both Organization Driven Configuration Data present under Configuration Data and Organization Driven Configuration is YFS_ORGANIZATION, when you deploy Organization Driven Configuration Data, the differences in the Organization Driven Configurations is reduced or vice versa.
  4. If you have deployed data from the YFS_RESOURCE table, restart your application servers in the target environment in order to refresh the cache.
