Team Foundation Server 2013 Release Management Scheduled Deployments


With TFS2013's new Release Management, is it possible to deploy at a given date/time, as in scheduled releases.

For minimized impact on users in Production, we'd like to be able to deploy during down time (during the night for example).


Solution

  • Yes.

    When approving the acceptance step (first step of a stage), in the popup, you will have the option to approve now, or give a date and time. If you select a date/time, the deployment will be triggered only then.

    No need to wake up in the middle of the night!
