Executing a Deployment Plan Remotely
You can execute a deployment plan created using Deployment Manager using a command line tool. Both the source and target sites must be running and online in Deployment Manager to follow the instructions in this section.
Note: If you want to execute a deployment plan that you have previously exported as described in
Exporting a Deployment Plan, follow the instructions in
Importing and Executing a Deployment Plan.
To run a deployment plan from the command line
1. Click PLANS.
2. Select a plan.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Click Copy To Clipboard.
Deployment Manager copies a plan execution command like the following to the clipboard:
curl -d '/"localhost_9410"/"localhost_9400"/"My_New_Resources"' -u "username:password" -X POST "http://localhost:9400/rest/deploy/executePlan" encryptionPassword=123456
5. Open a command line tool.
6. Paste the text that you copied from Deployment Manager into your command line tool.
7. In the pasted text, replace “username” and “password” with your user name and password.
8. Run the command.
9. In Deployment Manager, click the Execution Log for the plan to verify that instructions from the deployment plan were implemented as expected.
