Configuring Component Version Deployment Tasks

After a Component Version Actions configuration has been added or updated as needed, you can configure tasks to deploy Deployment Automation component versions.

The deployment is done by running the selected process type, application or component.

If you cancel a Deployment Automation task in Release Control, the corresponding Deployment Automation process is cancelled in Deployment Automation.

Note: Although a process may execute any kind of operation, such as configuration only, the typical purpose is deployment.
