Title: Deploying individual data sources
Post by: jonathan.webb@raytheon.co on 17 May 2012 08:21:05 AM
Hi all,

Just looking to see if anyone else has tried a technique to deploy an individual data source? Using C10.1 FP1

I've created a new data source with multiple connections and complex permissions in our dev environment, rather than recreating it in live I would quite like to deploy it across. If I use the deployment function, select 'include data sources and connections', and tick 'keep existing entries', I'm assuming only new connections will be imported when I run it into live? i.e. just this one?

Just being wary of overwriting all my live connections  :)

Cheers,
Jon

Nope - all your data source definitions will be included in the deployment, so you need to be very careful!
