Installing Your Product Using CA MSM › Deploying Products › Creating Deployments › Define Name and Description

Define Name and Description

When you create a deployment, you begin by defining the name and description so that it will be known and accessible within CA MSM.

Note: The asterisk indicates that the field is mandatory.

Follow these steps:

1. On the Introduction step, enter a meaningful deployment name.

   Limits: Maximum 64 characters.

   Note: Each deployment name must be unique and it is not case-sensitive. For example, DEPL1 and depl1 are the same deployment name.

2. Enter the description of this deployment.

   Limits: Maximum 255 characters.

3. Click Next.

   The CSI Selection step appears.

Note: When creating a deployment, you can save this deployment at any step in this wizard. This "under construction" deployment is added to the current deployments list. You can maintain this deployment until a successful snapshot has been created.
