Deployment Automation Base Configuration Details

Add a base configuration to define shared properties for a set of Deployment Automation item and action configurations.

Field Descriptions

The field descriptions are included in the UI. While creating or editing a configuration, point to a field name to view its description.

The base configuration fields are described in the following table.

Field	Description	Example Values
DA Server URL	Enter the URL for the DA server. If using DA 6.1.3 or earlier, use: http://<DA_SERVERNAME>:8080/serena_ra	http://<DA_SERVERNAME>:8080/da
DA Application Request Process link	This link is used to open the page in the DA web client when the component version or snapshot link is clicked in a view. If using DA 6.1.3 or earlier, use: /serena_ra/#applicationProcessRequest/	/da/#applicationProcessRequest/
DA Post Deploy URL	Enter the URL for the location in the Release Control installation where the DA notification service is running.	http://<RLC_SERVERNAME>:8085/rlc/rest/deploy/autoprocess/notification/SDA/
DA Post Deploy Message Variables	Enter the variables to be passed along with the notification to the recipient.	${p:request.id}:${p:finalStatus}
User Name	If specified, this user name is used to log in to DA, whether or not Use Single Sign-On (SSO) is selected. If user name is not specified and Use Single Sign-On (SSO) is selected, the currently logged in SBM user is used for SSO. User name is required to log into Deployment Automation if Use Single Sign-On (SSO) is not selected.
Password	DA password
Use Single Sign-On (SSO)	Select this to allow the provider service to log in to the DA system using the authentication token of the user. If you select this, ensure that SSO is enabled for DA as documented in "Configuring Tomcat for SSO" in the Deployment Automation Integration Guide. Note: If Use Single Sign-On (SSO) is selected, when DA is accessed the first time from Release Control, if it doesn't exist, the corresponding user is automatically created in DA in the Single Sign On Authentication Realm. Before accessing DA through SSO, either ensure that you have set the DA security options to give adequate default permissions to new users, or manually create the users and assign them to the appropriate group in DA.
Application Filter	Enter a comma-separated list of partial names used to filter application names. The text is matched anywhere in the name. For example, DB returns Sample DB and DBUpgrader applications.
Environment Filter	Enter a comma-separated list of partial names used to filter environment names.
Environment Logical Name Filter	Maps RLC logical environments to DA physical environments. Use this option to filter additional DA environments. The filter uses the DA `envLogicalName` environment property.
Wait for Callback for Component Process	Selected: execution status is set to Pending when the action is executed. Cleared: execution status is set to Completed when the action is executed.
Show Component Process Action	Enables you to select Run Component Process when using this configuration.
