Select the Deployment Payload

A deployment payload is the data that is being distributed to the target machine. The Continuous Discovery Policy: Payload wizard page lists the packages available on the deployment manager. Use this page to select a single payload to deploy.

To select a deployment payload

1. (Optional) Select the Transfer packages from Scalability Server check box.

   This option lets you transfer packages from an intermediate location and to specify the scalability server to be used at that location. If you select this option, follow all steps.

   If you do not select this option, packages are transferred directly from the deployment manager. In this case, go directly to Step 5.

2. Click the Configure button to invoke the Select Scalability Server Wizard.
3. Select the appropriate server and enter credentials for connecting to the scalability server.
4. Click OK.

   The scalability server is configured, and you are returned to the Payload page.

5. Select the package to be deployed from the list of available packages.
6. Click Next to go to the Target Criteria page.
