Deploy

Use the portal administration Deploy page to manage deployment of the current portal. More

Element Description

Server Name

Select the portal server connection to use to deploy the portal.

Comments

Enter any comments related to portal deployment.

Options

Include Portal Content

Select to specify that the portal content stored on Content Server must be included as part of portal deployment on the target server.

Include Shared Assets

Select to specify shared assets to be deployed as part of portal deployment. Deselect if you do not want to deploy shared assets.

Redeploy instead of propagating changes

Select to redeploy the portal. Deploying a new portal on the target server and redeploying an existing portal are exactly the same. When you redeploy a portal that already exists on the target, it is simply deleted and re-created as a new portal.

When you deploy a portal for the first time, the Redeploy instead of propagating changes check box appears disabled.

Include Shared Libraries

Select to specify shared libraries to be deployed with portal deployment. Clear the check box if you do not want to deploy shared libraries.

Note: If you include shared libraries with portal deployment, you must restart the portal server connection.

Deploy/Propagate

Click Deploy to deploy or redeploy the portal. If the portal has already been deployed, click the Propagate button to propagate portal changes to the target server.

While the portal is being deployed, propagated, or redeployed, you can choose to continue to work on the portal if required.

Change Details

Expand to view the artifacts or settings that changed since the last portal propagation. Click on the Portal Assets, Shared Assets, and Shared Libraries tabs to view the details.
