Creating Vault Deployment Tasks 

Vault deployment tasks integrate with Serena Release Vault to secure deployment of deployment units.

You can create a vault deployment task used to deploy a deployment unit for a release package into a particular stage.

You can do the following:

• Specify which deployment unit to deploy.

• Specify a sequence number for the task.

• Associate the task to a release package stage.

• Delete the task.

The sequence number is used to specify order of execution of the tasks associated with a request package. The vault deployment task is specific to a single stage.

To execute a vault deployment task for deployment of files stored in Serena Release Vault, Serena Release Control needs information on the Serena Release Vault stage and deployment area.

To create a vault deployment task:

1. Select a stage for which this task will be executed.

2. Click Create Task.

The Create Deployment Task dialog box appears.

3. In Task Type, select Vault.

The Task Type: Vault form appears in the dialog box.

4. Fill out the Vault form.

For example:

1. Enter Task name and Sequence number.

2. Click Get units to refresh the list of deployment units, or baselines, stored in Serena Release Vault, and then select a deployment unit.

3. Click Get stages to refresh the list of stages for the selected deployment unit, and then select a stage.

4. Click Get areas to refresh the list of deployment areas for the selected stage.

5. Select the primary and secondary owners for the task.

6. Optionally enter a description.

5. Click OK.

The vault task is saved. It will be executed according to its sequential order when the release package to which it is associated is deployed to the specified stage.
