Author Resource Replication problem

Hi,

I have a deployment script that runs on a server to replicate the documents
(postings and resources) from the Development to production servers.

I have a problem with the script while running it on the resources that were
replaced using the REPLACE option on the resource manager. Only the new
resources are replicated and the old ones that were replaced are not getting
replicated. Is there any possible fix for this or Is this a known error and
Microsoft has a fix for this?

Thanks in advance!

I'm a little curious why you wrote a custom script to migrate postings
and resources. Any reason you didn't use Site Deployment Manager?

That aside, how is your script going after the resources?

Hi Nanda,

Site Deployment will only deply the latest revision of all items.
The only way to get all revisions would be to use a copy of the database.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Shawn,

The reason is simple - Automation and Cost saving. We donot want
professionals to do a simple job for every release we are going to make.

Nanda

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the reply. The problem is that we are not even getting the latest
revision for a particular resource. We are only getting the resources that
are newly added from the last version of deployment.

Any ideas?

Hi Nanda,

is this resource bound to a posting?
Using script you can only deploy resources bound to postings - not
standalone resources.
A workaround can be found here:

Hi Stefan,

I have looked into the code. I hope this gives me a partial deployment only.
I mean it works only for resources.

A couple of questions:
1. Does this script deploy the resources just like any other deployment
scripts OR does it export all the resources irrespective of resources being
old or new?

2. Does this script export only standalone resources OR does it export every
resource in MCMS?

Regards,
Nanda

Hi Nanda,

1) it exports all. You wouuld need to adjust the code that adds the
resources to the placeohlder to filter them.

2) it exports all.

Cheers,
Stefan
