Application Provisioning

The application provisioning service enables end-to-end provisioning of NEP applications, including initial application deployment, application upgrade, and application patching. The application provisioning services are capable of deploying applications on a single system, or on a group of systems that follow a set of defined grouping semantics. They are also capable of deploying both single and multitier applications.

The application provisioning service supports the following operations:

• Creating application deployment descriptions

• Modifying application deployment descriptions

• Deleting application deployment descriptions

• Provisioning applications on hosts

• Provisioning a multitier application

• Deploying check-point software on hosts

• Removing applications from hosts

• Removing a multitier application

• Rolling back to previous version of applications

• Deploying query applications on hosts
