Performs environment specific property replacement, determines next composite revision and deploys the SCA artifact or the patch artifact (12.2.1+ only) to the server or cluster. Choose any managed server to deploy the composite to all managed servers in the cluster.
Composite revision purging is an optional feature that allows the developer to control the number of revisions actively deployed on the server upon successful deployment of the composite.
This operation should be run on any SOA managed server endpoint.
Configure SOA Server Host and Port for any SOA managed server and after deployment composite will be available on all managed servers in the SOA cluster.

Project Properties
| Property Name | Property Code | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOA Composite Name |
| Yes | Name of composite that is being deployed. |
| SOA Deploy Config Plan | FDSOA_DEPLOY_CFG_PLAN | No | Ability to define config plan specific to a composite. (see Configuration Plans section below). When using composite specific configuration plans, they are stored in configPlans folder in artifacts, but you do not need to specify configPlans folder in this property value, just provide name of the configuration plan file as appropriate. You can also override this property for various environments to use different value for each environment. For example, mycomposite-cfgplan.xml |
| SOA Partition |
| Yes | Name of the partition to hold the composite on the server. |
| SOA Overwrite Revision |
| Yes | Flag to indicate if the composite revision on the server should be overwritten or a new revision created (see special considerations). |
| SOA Make Default Revision |
| Yes | Flag to indicate if the deployed composite should be marked as the default revision. |

| Input Name | Input Code | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deploy Config Plan |
| No | Deployment config plan that is to be used for the composite. Takes a Wildcard expression or filename. Can be a relative or absolute path (see special considerations). |
| Composite Revision |
| No | Provide the composite revision, this input will override the |
| Stop On Purge Failure | FDSOA_INP_STOP_ON_PURGE_FAIL | No | Provides the ability to control whether a failed purge stops the workflow (default is False) |
| Activate Purge On Deploy | FDSOA_INP_ACTIVATE_PURGE | No | Activates the composite revision purge on deploy feature (default is False) |
| Preview Mode For Purge | FDSOA_INP_PURGE_PREVIEW | No | Activates the purge preview mode. If purge is activated, preview mode will show in the logs the composite revisions that would have been purged with no purge occurring. (default is False) see Composite Revision Purge for examples |
Outputs
Output Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Yes | Revision of the composite for this deployment. |
| Yes | Revision of the composite for the previous default revision. |
...
This operation will select all available endpoints associated to the environmentEnvironment/instanceInstance.
Endpoint Execution
This operation will execute on any one of the selected endpoints and will be random in the determination of which one.
Special Considerations
Utilize the FDSOA_EXT_CLASSPATH environment SOA Extend Classpath environment variable to extend the plugin classpath to allow the compile to succeed with custom java classes or xpath functions.NOTE: when

When patching a long running process revision that isn't the default revision, the patching process will make the patched revision the default revision. |
Composite Revisions
The revision for a composite is calculated unless either FDSOA_INP_REVISION Composite Revision (plugin input) is used or FDSOA_OVERWRITE_REVISION SOA Overwrite Revision (project property) is checked. The input will override all revision logic and use the value that is passed in. If the input is empty and the project property is unchecked, then the plugin will determine the largest revision on the server and increment the revision before deploying. The revision format is N.nn[.nn][.nn] with with an initial value of 1.0, with
N – – initial segment that will increment with no limitation
nn – – 0 through 99, when segment hits 100 it rolls to the next higher segment

Configuration Plans
The configuration plans that were saved to the ./artifacts/configPlans will be copied to the ./temp directory. Configuring the FDSOA_INP_DEPLOY_CFG_PLAN input can be either an absolute path to a global configuration plan or a relative path to one of the copied configuration plans based on the ./temp directory.
