Translating v4.8.3 Deployment Plan to v5.0.4

Hi,

I'm trying to install a fresh BuildMaster and replicate our deployment plans in to it, Is there a way to import a deployment plan from v4.8.3 into v5.0.4 so it can be upgraded automatically?

Root cause, I'm trying to create an 'Action Plan' set to iterate over all of my deployables and I have found the 'Loop' in 5.0.4 but I cant see how to manipulate the variables to get it to iterate my deployables.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris.

Product: BuildMaster
Version: 5.0.4

Hi Chris,

If you haven't already, make sure to check out KB#1118: Legacy Plans in BuildMaster 5.0 to see how to import plans and how the concepts differ.

The technique for handling this scenario would be..

foreach deployable in @DeployablesInRelease
{ 
  «operation1»
  «operation2»
  «operationN»
}

That being said, the @DeployablesInRelease function is not available in v5.0.4, and this specific translation is not handled by the importer, which is a bug in v5.0.4. We will fix this in 5.0.5 and will ship this quite soon (by end of week).
