Deploying a Mobile Workflow Package

Use the Deploy wizard to make mobile workflow packages available on the Unwired Server.

1. In the left navigation pane, click Workflows.
2. From the General tab, click Deploy.
3. Click Browse to locate the Mobile Workflow package.
4. Select the file to upload and click Open.
5. Select the deployment mode:
   • New – deploys the mobile workflow package and its files for the first time.

     If the uploaded file does not contain a mobile workflow, or a mobile workflow with the same name and version is already deployed to Unwired Server, you see an error message.

   • Update – installs a new mobile workflow package with the original package name and assigns a new, higher version number than the existing installed mobile workflow package. Sybase recommends that you use this deployment mode for major new changes to the mobile workflow package.
     During the update operation, Unwired Server

     1. Acquires a list of assigned application connections from the original package.
     2. Installs and assigns the package new version number.
     3. Prompts the administrator to specify application connection assignments from the acquired list of assigned application connections.
     4. Preserves existing notifications are preserved.
     5. Preserves the previous workflow package version.
   • Replace – replaces an existing mobile workflow package with a new package, but maintains the same name and version. Sybase recommends that you use the replace deployment mode for minor changes and updates to the mobile workflow package, or during initial development.
     During the replace operation, Unwired Server:

     1. Acquires a list of assigned application connections for each user of the original package.
     2. Uninstalls the original package.
     3. Installs the new package with the same name and version.
     4. Assigns the original application connections list to the new package, thus preserving any application connection assignments associated with the original package.
   The package is added to the list of deployed packages, which are sorted by Display Name.

Configure the package if you want the deployed package to have a different set of properties in a production environment.
