From the ATG Business Control Center, you can use the Admin Console to configure the targets and agents that define deployment for your site. The process of setting up deployment through the Admin Console is described in Define the Deployment Topology. The Admin Console also lets you perform many management and troubleshooting tasks, including scheduling, stopping, and rolling back deployments.
This section gives an overview of using the Admin Console to perform the following tasks:
View Deployment Details, including errors.
Schedule Deployments or start them manually.
Manage the Deployment Queue—for example, move a project to the front of the queue.
Roll Back Deployments—that is, undoing a specific deployment by reverting a target site to a previous state.
View Deployment Agents Status—status, errors, and configuration information.
