Updating Deployment Date Schedules

The deployment schedule is a ChangeMan ZMF package date property that tells ChangeMan ZMF when to run the promotion job. The deployment schedule is entered in the ChangeMan ZMF calendar when the promotion action is executed. Once the deployment is scheduled ChangeMan ZMF allows the date to be changed to an earlier or later date. See Promoting ChangeMan ZMF Change Packages.

The fields that are displayed when configuring the deployment tasks to update deployment date schedules are described in the following table.

Field	Description	Example Values
Title	A descriptive name of the deployment task	Update deployment date
Description	A longer description that explains what the task does	This task updates the promotion schedule.
Action	Select Update Deployment Schedule.
Environments	Select from environments configured in the deployment path. For example, Dev, Test, and Prod.	<select Dev>
Deployment date	Enter or select the new date for the scheduled deployment. Deployment date must be a future date and be less than the installation date of the change package.	10/04/2016 15:58:40

After you create the deployment task, the task appears in the list in red, and you must then associate the related change package with the deployment task. See Linking Deployment Units to Deployment Tasks.
