  • At this point Test FlexDeploy database should be copy of Production database.
  • Now make various updates to make sure limit access to FlexDeploy Test environment and limit what FlexDeploy Test can do against various endpoints. You can customize any of these steps as per your needs.

    • Disable external realm and users, so access to FlexDeploy is limited. For example,

      Code Block
      update fd.fd_realm set is_active='N';
update fd.fd_user set is_active='N' where local_user='N'; -- update as appropriate
commit;


    • Disable all endpoints, so Test FlexDeploy can not run any executions until Administrator explicitly enables some endpoints.

      Code Block
      update fd.endpoint set is_active='N' where connection_type='SSH';
commit;


    • Disable production environment.

      Code Block
      update fd.environment set is_active='N' where environment_code='PROD'; -- update as appropriate
commit;


  • Copy artifacts zip file to Test FlexDeploy server and extract it in artifact repository folder. Make sure to run this on Test environment only.
    • cd /flexdeploy/artifacts
    • tar -czvf /app/backup/flexdeploy_artifacts_test.tar.gz *
    • rm -rf *
    • tar -xzvf /app/backup/flexdeploy_artifacts_prod.tar.gz
  • Now FlexDeploy artifact repository is also copied.
  • Now you can start Test FlexDeploy and validate it.
  • You can make necessary adjustments to Realm, User, Groups to validate setup and perform tests as necessary. This is necessary as we had disabled user and realms in previous steps.
