Change Management
The Change Management System tab allows association of the release with any Change Management Instance which was configured in the topology. You must create the instance prior to configuring your release to it. Edit a Release, and select a Change Management System Instance from the drop down to associate it to the release. Association of a Change Management Instance is optional, and used only to integrate with ServiceNow.

The Default tab provides configuration which applies to every stage of the associated pipeline. Check the Require Change Ticket for Deployment checkbox if you want to enforce that every stage in the pipeline have an associated change ticket in order to submit a deployment request for that stage/environment. If any of the execution related steps (e.g. Deploy, Deploy All, etc.) are executed in the pipeline for a stage which requires a ticket, and no ticket is provided, the step will fail indicating a ticket is required.
The Environment Configuration allows configuration by pipeline stage. To override from the default, click the 
button, and then click the 
button to add a new row. In the row, select the environment/stage, and indicate whether or not you wish to require a change ticket. The execution behavior is the same as with default configuration when execution related steps are performed in the the particular environment within the pipeline. To delete the configuration override for a an environment, click the 
button in the row. The fallback to the settings on the Defaults tab, click the 
button.
