Hot Deploying and Merging Rule Projects with webMethods Deployer
 
Configuring My webMethods Server
You can deploy rule projects to a My webMethods Server repository with webMethods Deployer. For detailed information about working with webMethods Deployer, see webMethods Deployer User’s Guide.
To enable usage of webMethods Deployer, you must configure My webMethods Server as described in Configuring My webMethods Server.
When deploying, you can merge the structure of a new rule project contained in the deployment set with the data of an equally named rule project that already exists in the My webMethods Server repository. Only decision tables can be merged. The merged rule project only contains the data of the rule project that already exists in the My webMethods Server repository. Any data in the newly deployed rule project is deleted.
Example
The following decision table exists in the My webMethods Server repository:
Existing Decision Table
A new version of the decision table is deployed to the My webMethods Server repository:
New Decision Table
The merged decision table consists of the new structure filled with the existing data:
