Configuring release environments

To create a list of release environments on which to deploy applications, you can import application environments from IBM® UrbanCode Deploy.

Before you begin

If you are importing application environments from IBM UrbanCode Deploy, set up a connection to the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server.

About this task

Each release phase has one or more release environments which host applications. The release phases do not share environments. In this way, the work for each phase is separate from the work in the other phases. When you create the release, you assign environments to the phases. The Environments page shows the list of available environments.

Procedure

Follow these steps to set up release environments:

  1. Click Environments. The Release Environments list shows the available release environments, and the Application Environments list shows the environments that are available on the IBM UrbanCode Deploy server.
  2. To create a release environment, click Add Release Environment. The release environments that you add here are available to use in a release phase.
  3. Optional: Organize the application environments by adding tags to them. You can create tags by going to the Tags tab at the top of the Environments page and clicking Add New. Then, you can apply tags to application environments by returning to the Release Environment Configuration tab, clicking the plus sign next to an application environment, and selecting a tag.
  4. Add application environments to release environments by clicking and dragging the application environment to the release environment. You can filter the table of application environments by typing in the search boxes at the top of the table.

    Each release environment can contain any number of application environments, and application environments can belong to more than one release environment. By adding an application environment to a release environment, you include that application environment in the systems that the release environment represents.

What to do next

Now you can use these release environments for a release phase. See Creating releases.
