You set up ATG Content Administration deployment in the following steps:
Note: This procedure assumes that ATG is installed on your staging and/or production target servers.
Plan Deployment Topology—that is, the target sites and agents that make up the environment where you deploy asset data.
Within each deployment target:
Configure the deployment mode for target servers: either Configure Switch Deployment, or Configure Online Deployment.
Manage Asset Security on Target Sites: adopt a strategy to protect the ATG Content Administration-managed assets on the target from user modification.
Configure the asset management server:
Configure Deployment Data Sources and Destination Repositories used by the DAF deployment system.
Define the Deployment Topology for use by the DeploymentServer.
If your environment has several ATG Content Administration clusters, Configure Deployment from Multiple Asset Management Server Clusters to the same site, if desired.
If desired, on the asset management server and/or target servers, Configure Deployment Event Listeners that listen for deployment events and take appropriate action.
Schedule Deletion of Empty Folders for folders whose assets moved to a renamed folder.
Optionally, Cache Checksums for File Assets in order to optimize deployment of file assets. More generally, you can use other strategies to optimize frequent deployments, or deployments of very large numbers of assets. For more information, see Configuring DAF Deployment for Performance in the ATG Platform Programming Guide.
