Backup and rollback
-
Do we have an option to take the backup of current project before deploying the changes in production/Test environment and rollback the changes if something goes wrong?
Product: BuildMaster
Version: 4.8.0 -
Yes; BuildMaster can do anything it is configured to do in its Deployment Plans. There's a few backup strategies you could use:
- zip contents of target project and move it to a backup folder
- deploy to a target directory then swap directory names
- deploy straight from a BuildMaster artifact, then a zip backup would be kept automatically (recommended)
The 3rd option gives you a pretty easy way to rollback, provided there aren't API-breaking database schema changes (you'll have to restore the DB in that case, since you can't unDROP a column). See the following for more information on rollbacks:
