Does the JBoss ON provisioning system support scheduling deployments?

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Environment

  • JBoss Operations Network (ON) 2.4.1, 2.4.2, 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.1, 3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.2.x, 3.3.x
  • JBoss ON Provisioning Bundles

Issue

  • Scheduling bundle deployments
  • We were wondering if there's a way we can schedule deployments?
  • Is there any out-of-the-box mechanism for scheduling deployments?
  • Does the provisioning system support scheduling deployments?

Resolution

Currently there is no scheduling capability in the JBoss ON provisioning system itself. However, you can use any scheduling system to execute provisioning tasks using the JBoss ON Remote Client API (for instance 7.6. Scheduling Script Runs with Cron explains how to schedule and execute JBoss ON CLI script using cron). The API will allow you to interact with the provisioning system so that you can push new version of existing bundle deployments out to their destinations or deploy brand new bundles.
