deploy (EBS)

Deploys EBS Artifacts to the specified EBS server. This operation checks each file for changes and only deploys each file if it has changed or is set to forced. This operation is equal to apply phase if you are using adop phases for applying manual changes. The environment/instance property for the source script can be used to choose what patch mode is used. If the source script is just the path to the source script, the deployment is equivalent to apply_mode=online, and the files are applied to the patch edition. If instead, " run" is appended to the source script, the deployment can be done equivalently to either downtime or hotpatch apply_mode by either leaving the server running, or stopping it before the operation. If you do not wish to use ADOP, append the " run" to the end of the source script. 


Files will be deployed in the order saved in the build step. If the order of deployment must be adjusted, perform a new build. See the build operation for more information about ordering files or search the wiki for more information.


If you need to execute the SQL files other than the default user (EBS Database User), you need to prefix the file name with SCHEMAXXX_. Eg: SCHEMAPOS_PER_SQF.sql and define a pair of properties on your workflow as below:


FDEBS_DB_SCHEMAPOS_USER
FDEBS_DB_SCHEMAPOS_PASSWORD


If you need to execute the XDF files other than default user, please create the pair of properties for primary schema as above.

See also EBS Object Types Reference for a list of supported EBS object types.

If performing clone operations between environments, consider using the Post Refresh utilities of flexDeploy. Read more on the Post Refresh Requests page. (new in 5.0)
