This is a configuration templating system built into HCL Deploy. Configuration Templates are text files held within HCL Deploy that have placeholders for variable configuration. This plugin writes out these configuration files at deployment time, substituting in environment or target specific properties. This plugin also reads properties from a file.
This plugin includes steps that install configuration templates and import properties.
This plugin runs on all operating systems that are supported by the HCL Deploy agent, including z/OS with UNIX System Services.
This plugin includes one or more steps, click Steps for step details and properties.
See Installing plugins in HCL Deploy for installing and removing plugins.
