File list failure

Amit_LnT

Hi,
I have a filelist deployment requirement. I have a list of files which need to be open deployed. In that, if any one fails to deploy, I have to report that to another team. Is there any way where I can identify which files are successfully deployed and which not? May be something easy or a log file?

Env: TS 6.5 SP2 on windows server 2003

Thanks,
Amit

You can do this programmatically with a DNR script from your deployment configuration file - the DNR script receives information about successes and failures through STDIN in XML format so you'd have to parse the information (there's a perl module IWXML.pm supplied with OpenDeploy that you can use for this purpose) - you also need to make sure that your deployment is set to be transactional if you want it to fail and rollback all deployed files if any of the files fail.

Hi Ghoti..
Thanks for your valuable input.
I just tried one DNR script which will only take status and log it. I ran the script as DNR. Following is the four line code.

use strict;
my $status = <STDIN>;
open LOG, ">D:/iw-home/local/logs/newlog.txt";
print LOG "\n $status \n";

But the log shows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <log target="" action="0" date="1239127659" result="0" response="" >

The filelist contains three files and all deployed successfully.
Am I missing something here.

Thanks again,
amit

Try changing the code to:

use strict;
my $status =  q();
{
    local $/ = undef;
$status = <STDIN>;
}
open LOG, ">D:/iw-home/local/logs/newlog.txt";
print LOG $status;
close LOG;

That should work better (do you understand why?)

That should work better (do you understand why?)

And if you do not, examine the output file.

There is no need to code Deployment Log parser yourself. Ghoti mentioned IWXML Package. There are few threads
that discuss how to use it. For example, take a look at [thread=20429]this[/thread] one, it may help.

Hi All,
I checked Ghoti's code and it worked and yes, I understood why it worked.. Smiley Happy

Then, I implemented it following the suggestion from Boris. Did not parse the log file and directly used the IWXML.pm to get the file status. And it worked good.
I just have one more question. In my case, I have to delete the list of files from Target servers. So, for the case of failure in deletion of files, should I get that status with the $xml->GetFailedFiles() function ? OR will that be list of files minus $xml->GetSucceededDeletedFiles().

For the record, I believe I originally suggested the use of IWXML.pm - Borris suggested that you follow my suggestion - however that's really not here or there.
I believe you would use GetFailedFiles or some similar function for failed-deleted-files (if there is one?) - but the best way to determine this is to create a fully-verbose script and run it in a scenario that replicates what you are attempting to capture.
