What to do next
Learn about the processes that take place in the background when an application is deployed to the
cloud. See Understanding the Deployment and Update Process.
Check the status of an in-progress deployment. See Using the Deployment Summary Page.
Quick Deploy an Application
When you tear down a deployed application from the cloud environment, you can quickly redeploy the
application without configuring the elements in the Deployment Profile wizard.
With quick deploy, you can also update required properties and overridable properties outside the
Deployment Profile wizard and deploy the application blueprint.
When you quick deploy an application, the latest application version and associated deployment profiles
are available for deployment. To quick deploy an older application version, open the application and quick
deploy the specific application version.
Note For a vRealize Automation deployment, if you add another NIC to an application and use the
existing deployment profile to quick deploy the application you receive an error. You must open the
Deployment Profile wizard and select Map Details to map the cloud network to the newly added NIC.
Prerequisites
n
Log in to Application Services as an application publisher and deployer.
n
Verify that at least one deployment profile is available in Application Services. See Create a
Deployment Profile.
