Open Deploy for one source path and multiple targets in Teamsite version 5.5.2

Akshayg

Hi,

I want to open deploy my files and directories from one source directory to multiple servers and hence different path.

How to do the configuration, Is is possible at all in teamsite 6.5?

Kindly note that i want to deploy content from one source directory to 2 different servers.

Kindly explain with an example.

Will highly appreciate a early response!!

Warm regards
Akshay

First - you should be looking to upgrade your TeamSite ASAP since 5.5.2 is no longer officially supported (except in special circumstances I believe)

Second - when you get TeamSite upgraded, you should upgrade OpenDeploy too.

Third - you do not indicate what version of OpenDeploy you are using and on what platform(s)

Fourth - your request is unclear - are you saying that each of the target servers will have the files being deployed stored in different paths? I.e. you deploy /default/main/www/STAGING/foo.html to /wwwroot/docroot/foo.html on one server and /some_root_dir/mumble/foo.html on another server?

Without a clearer understanding of your question - it's difficult to formulate an answer. On the face of it - the answer is basically RTFM and take training; with a better understanding of the question the answer might change.

Hi ghoti,

Here are the answers to your queries:-
1) We will be using 5.5 version till 31st march after that we are upgrading to 6.5.
2) Thanks for the kind advice , we wil do the needful.
3) I am not sure of Open deploy version, i will check this with my system admin but we are using it on Windows platform. i am not sure how this query will help you understand my question better?
4) Yes, you are absolutely right, i want to deploy my file 1.html from y:/default/main/adidas/staging/1.html to wwwroot/1.html on one server and wwwroot/dir1/1.html to another server.

I believe you will have a much better understanding of my Question now.

Could you be kind enough to help me out here?

Thanks and Regards
Akshay

Assuming you're using at least OpenDeploy 5.5.1 - what you need to do is specify a different target area path within targetRules elements on each defined node in your replicationFarmSet - this will override the targetArea setting in the target section of the deployment configuration file.

RTFM / read the DTDs for the deployment configuration file for more information about these elements.

Hi ghoti,

Thanks for the help.

I have used exactly the same thing but it does not seem to work i.e. the path defined in targetrules area is not able to override the path given in targetfilesystem area,
I am using following code, may be you can find out what i am doing wrong here.

In odnodes.xml i have defined two nodes as
< node name="target1"

host="my.target.machine1"

port="20014"

/>

< node name="target2"

host="my.target.machine2"

port="20014"

/>

< /nodeSet>

and in generic_deploy.xml i have given as:-
< replicationFarm name="RF1">

< nodeRef useNode="target1">

< targetRules area="/path/for/deployment/one"/>

< /nodeRef>

< nodeRef useNode="target2">

< targetRules area="/path/for/deployment/two"/>

< /nodeRef>

< /replicationFarm>

< /replicationFarmSet>

< definition name="DEF1" >
...
< target useReplicationFarm="RF1" >
< targetFilesystem area="****Ideally this should have been ignored but my deployment is failing if i donot give any target path here***"/>
...
< /target>
< /definition>

I would be highly grateful to you if you could help me identify what i am doing wrong or what different i could do.

Best Regards
Akshay

[odnodes.xml]

<node name="target1"
      host="my.target.machine1"
      port="20014"/>
<node name="target2"
      host="my.target.machine2"
      port="20014"/>

[generic_deploy.xml]

<replicationFarmSet>
  <replicationFarm name="RF1">
    <nodeRef useNode="target1">
      <targetRules area="/path/for/deployment/one"/>
    </nodeRef>
    <nodeRef useNode="target2">
      <targetRules area="/path/for/deployment/two"/>
    </nodeRef>
  </replicationFarm>
</replicationFarmSet>

<definition name="DEF1">
  ...
  <target useReplicationFarm="RF1">
    <targetFilesystem area="XXXX"/>
    ...
  </target>
</definition>

I'm pretty sure this should work.
What version of OpenDeploy are you using? (including SP level)
If you run this as iwodstart generic_deploy -sim can you post the deployment log files?

Akshayg

Hi ghoti,

We are using Interwoven opendeploy 5.6.0 SP1 version.

After doing rounds of testing i found out that no matter what path i give in targetRules area in node ref it is not able to override the path given in targetFilesystem area in deployment definition.
Hence the deployment is failing and deployment logs are showing messages as:-
client: BEGINNING Transactional Deployment
Remote-ERROR: remote-dir-not-ok
ERROR: Failed to deploy local_directory[.]

Any clues why this is happening?

Kindly help.

Best Regards
Akshay

find the logs created on the receiver and see if you can post the relavent portion of those files.

I don't have access to that version of OD - but I know it worked in 5.5.1 and I just checked and verified that it works in OD 6.0.2.

Since you're working with a supported version of OD - you can probably get support for it - and as such you can probably send your config files and log files to IWOV Support to have them help you.

I don't really want to go through your log files in private mail and such because you can't post them publicly.

All I did was use the test.xml and modify it so that it looked like this:

    <replicationFarmSet>
        <replicationFarm name="MYFARMNAME">
            <nodeRef useNode="MyLocalHost">
              <targetRules area="/export1/OpenDeployNG/tmp/foobar"/>
            </nodeRef>
        </replicationFarm>
    </replicationFarmSet>
...
        <target>
            <targetFilesystem area="XXXXXX"/>
...

and verified that it deployed the test into the test directory
