Path Execution Job

[bdmacdonald]

I was wondering if there was a way to create an execution type deployment. For example, we have a SQL system and an IIS server. We need to patch and reboot the SQL server first before we can update the IIS server. Is there a way to trigger the update of the IIS server once the SQL system has completed all it’s tasks?

While I don’t understand what you mean when you say “Path Execution Job” or “execution type deployment,” I do understand what you wrote about your SQL and IIS servers. If you want to have one server be updated, rebooted, and then come back online before the second server begins updating, you can accomplish this with either the ‘Basic Multi-Row Queue Sequence’ or the ‘Advanced Multi-Row Queue Sequence.’

Here are a tutorials explaining how to use them:

Thank you Doug. Sorry reading that back, my wording of the question was terrible. I think the multi-row queuing is exactly what we are looking for.
