Before You Begin

This 10-minute Oracle by Example (OBE) shows System Administrators how to automate the deployment of packages using the sample orchestration - JDE_ORCH_DeployPkgToServers.

In this OBE, you will:

• Run the sample orchestration JDE_ORCH_DeployPkgToServers from Orchestrator Studio to deploy a previously built package.

Background

The enhanced Package Deployment application (P9631W) enables automation of the package deployment process flow using Process Recorder and Orchestrations.

Beginning with Tools Release 9.2.9, System Administrators can automate the deployment of packages using the sample orchestration - JDE_ORCH_DeployPkgToServers.

Prerequisite

Before performing the steps in this OBE, you must ensure that:

• The latest Planner ESU is applied and contains the necessary changes to the Deployment Director program (P9631//P9631W).
• You have a full or update package that is ready to be deployed.

This OBE assumes that you have:

• Downloaded and deployed the TSPKGDEP0* EnterpriseOne sample package and its dependency using Change Assistant. See Deploying Configurations Using Change Assistant with AIS Connection.

After downloading and deploying the TSPKGDEP0* package, you must:

• Use P98220U – Work with User Defined Objects to share UDO JDE_ORCH_DeployPkgToServers and JDE_SREQ_DeployPkgToServers.

1. Sign in to the EnterpriseOne HTML Client for the environment that the sample package TSPKGDEP0* was deployed to.
2. Enter P98220U in the Fastpath. The Work with User Defined Objects form is displayed.
3. In the Short Description QBE, search for JDE_SREQ_DeployPkgToServers.
4. Select the UDO in the grid row.
5. From the Row exit, select Approve/Share. The status for the UDO changes to Shared.
   

   

6. Repeat steps 3-5 for JDE_ORCH_DeployPkgToServers.

Running the Package Deploy Orchestration

To run the sample Package Deploy orchestration -  from the Orchestration Studio:

1. Sign in to the Orchestrator Studio.
2. Click the Orchestrations icon.
   

   

3. Find JDE_ORCH_DeployPkgToServers and click on the orchestration.

   

4. To run the orchestration, double-click the Start icon.

   

5. Provide these inputs:
   • Package_Name: Enter the package name of the package that you want to deploy. For example, enter PKGDEPSMP.
   • Server_Name: This is an array input. Enter names of the servers that you will deploy the package to. For example, enter ems6304.
     

     The Orchestration will iterate over this array, calling once for each server.

     

6. Click Run.

   

7. Navigate to the Work With Package Deployment program (P9631W) (Package and Deployment Tools (GH9083), Package Deployment) to verify the deployment. When the process completes, the Package Status changes to 30 (Deployed).
