Deploy a Monitor to CVS

The following topics are available.

The only prerequisite for this approach is the existence of a test case or suite.

Follow these steps:

From the Project panel at the left of DevTest Workstation, right-click a test case or suite and select Deploy as monitor to CVS.
You see a collection of tabs to provide monitor information, the same as needed for Creating Monitor MAR Info Files in Using CA Application Test.
Click Deploy to deploy the monitor.

Before you can perform this procedure, a Model Archive for the monitor must be created.

Follow these steps:

In the Monitor tab of the CVS Dashboard, click Re/Deploy Monitor.
The Re/Deploy Monitor window for the new monitor opens.
Enter the name of the MAR file in the Model Archive field.
If the MAR has previously been deployed, select or clear the Replace the monitor if it exists check box.
Click Re/Deploy.
The monitor is added to the CVS Dashboard.

Before you can perform this procedure, a Model Archive for the monitor must have been created.

Follow these steps:

Go to the LISA_HOME\cvsMonitors directory.
Add the MAR file to the directory.
Later, you can update the monitor by placing a new version of the MAR file in the same directory.
