  3. Multiple Deployments • Problem • You may have multiple environments – development, test, production • You may use multiple components – Daemon, UI, WS, Client • Difficult to manage all configuration files.

  4. Multiple Deployments (continued) • Solution • Automate build procedure for each component of each environment. • Non-environment specific configuration can be saved in default configuration files. • Environment specific configuration can be saved in a build script. • Store modified configuration in a version control system. • Follow best practices, such as encrypting passwords. • Example from University of Pennsylvania: • https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/Managing+Grouper+in+several+environments

  5. Upgrading Grouper • Release notes explain upgrade procedure in detail. • Typical upgrade steps: • Download new versions of each component. • Merge configuration files and JARs. • Stop Grouper Daemon and prevent updates. • Run the change log job using the old API via GSH. • Backup database. • Run ‘-registry -check’using new API and verify SQL file. • Run ‘-registry -runsqlfile’. • Initialize new data (sometimes) • Start Grouper Daemon and deploy new components.
