Deployment Tool for LL objects

Marko_Genzel

I wonder if there is a deployment tool for the LiveLink environment...I know there is the xml-export/import utility, but that's a lot of manual work and a lot of errors you can make, especially if you have a lot of objects to export/import...Is there any tool to support a deployment process of LiveLink Objects (Categories, Workflows, Forms, whatever) from one system to another? I think of a tool where you configure the set of objects you want to get exported (i.e. all the objects which belong to a release) and where you configure the target system and target object id's. Then the tool automatically exports the objects and imports them into the target system.What did other OT customers when they had to export a bunch of different LL objects from one system to import them into another system?Somebody who has ever seen the transport mechanism of SAP knows what I am searching for...Best Regards,Marko

There's a partner tool you may have a look at called CGI Power Tools for Deployment from Global Cents :
