Deploy Configurations to Environments

After you have created and configured a Lasernet environment, you must deploy a Lasernet configuration to it. A Lasernet configuration specifies the workflow that a Lasernet environment will run.

See a List of Configurations

To display a list of the configurations that this Lasernet Config Server manages, click Configurations in the Tools menu. Alongside each configuration’s name, the page displays the configuration’s description and latest revision number.

Import or Create a Configuration

Although the Lasernet Config Server manages Lasernet configurations and deploys them to environments, they are imported, created, and modified through Lasernet Developer.

For information about importing a Lasernet 10 configuration into Lasernet 11 (including important migration information), see the Lasernet 11 Migration Guide.

For information about using Lasernet Developer to create a Lasernet configuration, see Create, Import, or Open a Configuration (in the Lasernet Configuration Management and Deployment Guide).

After you have used Lasernet Developer to import or create a configuration, it will be listed on the Configurations page of the Lasernet Config app (as shown in the image above).

Rename a Configuration, Change a Configuration’s Description, and View a Configuration’s Revision History

To open the Configuration Properties window for a particular configuration, click the configuration and then click Edit in the toolbar.

On the General tab of the Configuration Properties window, you can rename the configuration and change its description.

The Revisions tab enables you to view the configuration’s revision history.

Deploy a Configuration to a Lasernet Environment

After you have added a configuration to the Config Server, you can use the Lasernet Config web app or Lasernet Developer to deploy it to a Lasernet environment.

For instructions, see Deploy a Configuration to a Production Environment (in the Lasernet Configuration Management and Deployment Guide).

Note

Deploying a configuration revision to a production Lasernet environment is only one part of the overall Lasernet configuration management process. For comprehensive information on this subject, see the Lasernet Configuration Management and Deployment Guide.

Next Steps

The following steps of the Lasernet 11 installation and setup process are required only if the Lasernet system that you are setting up will use these features:

• Add print servers to the Config Server.

• Set up app-registration-based access for external applications, so that they can authenticate with web services that Lasernet environments host.
