Configuring Batch Workflows for ADM Command-Line Interface Deployment

Configure Application Deployment Manager (ADM) batch workflows in Siebel Tools if deploying sessions by using export files or by using the Server Manager command-line interface program (srvrmgr). When using srvrmgr to execute the deployments, ADM exports all items in a deployment session in one step using multiple files. ADM also imports all items exported from that deployment session in one step.

This task is a one-time only requirement, and is an optional task in the Process for Migrating Customizations Between Applications. This task is not required if you plan to migrate deployment sessions using the ADM GUI.

To configure Siebel Tools for ADM command-line deployment

1. Launch Siebel Tools.
2. In the Object Explorer of Siebel Tools, select the Workflow Process object.
3. Locate the following workflow processes:
   • UDA Batch Deployment
   • UDA Batch Import
4. If not revised earlier, click Revise.
5. For the workflow process UDA Batch Deployment, navigate to the WF Process Props view; in the Default Strings column, configure the property ExportFilePath to a shared network path.

   ADM stores export files to this location.

6. For the workflow process UDA Batch Import, navigate to the WF Process Props view; in the Default Strings column, configure the property Import File Directory to a shared network path.

   ADM retrieves import files from this location.

7. Deploy the workflow processes from Siebel Tools.

   For further information on this procedure, see Siebel Business Process Designer Administration Guide.

8. Activate both workflow processes in the application GUI.

   For information on this procedure, see Siebel Business Process Designer Administration Guide.

NOTE:  Activate the UDA Batch Deployment workflow on the source system and the UDA Batch Import workflow on the target system.
