Accept or Discard a Promoted Update Profile
A deployer can click the notification to review the components of the promoted update profile and decide
whether to accept or discard the changes. When you accept the changes, Application Services performs
a compatibility check between the promoted update profile and the deployment before applying the
changes.
Prerequisites
n
Log in to Application Services as an application publisher and deployer.
n
Verify that at least one update profile is promoted to one or multiple deployment environments. See
Promote an Update Profile.
Procedure
1 On the Application Services title bar, click the drop-down menu and select Deployments.
2
Locate a deployment with a notification icon ( ) and click the icon.
The updates summary page opens.
3 Click Apply.
Application Services checks the compatibility between the promoted update profile and the current
updated deployment. If severe incompatibilities are found, you can cancel or discard the notification.
If non-severe incompatibilities such as an update profile existing with same name in the deployment
is found, then you can continue to apply, discard or cancel the notification.
4 In the wizard, review the new values or configurations in the Application Properties tab and Execution
Plan tab and select Apply Update.
5 (Optional) If you do not want to apply the new values or configurations in the promoted update profile,
select Discard Update.
The promoted update profile is discarded and the notification icon (
) is removed from the
deployment.
What to do next
You can select another deployment with a notification and continue to review and apply or discard the
promoted update profile.
Rollback an Update Process
With Application Services if an update process to modify a configuration fails or if the updated deployment
has performance or availability problems, you can use the rollback feature to restore that update to the
last successful state in the timeline.
