EM rollout plan
Applies for EMv6 &EMv7.
Rollout plans
The "Rollout plan" section can be used to view and edit rollout plans generated in the EM and create new plans. Rollout plans assign one or several sequences to release groups.
"Add new action" and then "Configure action" can be used to define actions and (optionally) link them with a start condition to ensure that an action is only performed when the start condition is met. You can also define whether the complete sequence shall be stopped in case an error occurs during an action.
The sample selection in the following screenshot defines that the action "Install an application" shall only be performed if the start condition is met, in this case, if the folder C:\Temp is available.
Use the Configure rollout plan button to create a new rollout plan and define in which folder the rollout plan shall be stored in the EM console, which sequences shall be executed, which release group is assigned to the plan and (optionally) which rollout plan shall be used for uninstallation.
The function 'Uninstall with' is very interesting in connection with the service catalog. The installation and uninstallation routine is stored in the corresponding service.
