2 Create an Environment Group task. Define the following environment group:
Production, one environment group that combines the local production environment
with the remote production environment.
3 Create a User Profile task. Define user profiles for the following user roles:
Developer checks out members/objects, performs development, and creates a
promotion request targeting the quality assurance environments. The developer
compiles the promotion request in the work library.
Administrator or project leader creates projects and moves the promotion request to
production.
Check Out From Remote: Scenario 16
Overview
In this scenario you check out the source from a remote system to development on the host
system. You promote the changes to the production environment on the host and distribute
the changes to the remote system where the original check out occurred. You distribute these
changes on a different promotion request than the local version to the production
environment.
Development Tasks
This is the typical task sequence from the start of a programming change to completion.
1 Check out. Developer checks out source from the remote system to a personal library,
project library, or shared development library. The developer checks out to the local
development environment.
2 Develop and test. Developer codes, compiles, and tests programs.
3 Promote to local production.
Developer creates the promotion request targeting the local production environment.
Developer can compile the promotion request into the work library. Typically, you
compile just for the first environment.
Administrator moves the members/objects into the production environment.
