Hi Joris,
first of all thank you for your answer.
Since I've read and tested (with success) to create a deployable package
and installed it on a UAT-server, I want to ask you a new question.
The procedure I used was to create the deployable package from Visual Studio on the build vm (dev-environment)
and then moved the package to the UAT-server where I installed. The procedure I used is founded in this page:
- ax.help.dynamics.com/.../installing-deployable-package-in-ax7
Before I started I found the services running on the UAT server with the AXUpdateInstaller.exe list-command (example AOSService).
I changed the name of the machine in the DefaultTopologyData.xml and added the services in the ServiceModelList tag in the xml-file.
Then I run the first and second commands below and verified the runbookid via the command AXUpdateInstaller.exe list.
Next I run the command number three, four and five. And it all went OK (as far I could see), but I am not able to see that the changes I have
been migrated to the UAT-environment. I've also restarted server and AOSService. The changes I have done is (amongst others) to make some of
the entities visible in OData. I use the url <url to AX7>/data/$metadata to confirm this.
Is there something I am missing?
Commands used to install deployable package:
1.AXUpdateInstaller.exe generate -runbookid="AXtopology" -topologyfile="C:\Users\axlocaladmin\Deployable_packages\AXDeployablePackage20160902\DefaultTopologyData.xml" -servicemodelfile="C:\Users\axlocaladmin\Deployable_packages\AXDeployablePackage20160902\DefaultServiceModelData.xml" -runbookfile="C:\Users\axlocaladmin\Deployable_packages\AXDeployablePackage20160902\Axtopology.xml"
2.AXUpdateInstaller.exe import -runbookfile="C:\Users\axlocaladmin\Deployable_packages\AXDeployablePackage20160902\Axtopology.xml"
3.AXUpdateInstaller.exe execute -runbookid="AXtopology"
(if necessary) AXUpdateInstaller.exe execute -runbookid="AXtopology" -setstepcomplete=6
(if necessary) AXUpdateInstaller.exe execute -runbookid="AX topology" -rerunstep=2
4.AXUpdateInstaller.exe execute -runbookid="AXtopology" -versioncheck=true
5.AXUpdateInstaller.exe export -runbookid="AXtopology" -runbookfile="C:\Users\axlocaladmin\Deployable_packages\AXDeployablePackage20160902\Axtopology.xml"
I have started to read through you blog and since my company is a partner I will try (harder) to get access to the learning center.
Best regards
