Question

Automation of IT operations from cloud

Hello,

I have a number of Linux shell scripts for automation of particular operations. For example: merging SVN revisions from one branch to other, update statuses of JIRA tickets, make an Oracle eBS build from sources stored in SVN or git etc. 

I'm trying to use these automation scripts for different infrastuctures and customers. But I cannot share the script code for mentioned customers. Is it possible to put automation shell scripts in cloud and call these scripts from different infrastuctures? Are some available technical solutions how to call Linux shell scripts from cloud?

For example in cloud I could have shell function svn_merge() with parameters. But this script could be called from different infras with different parameters like "svn_merge <parameters>".

I will be happy to see any suggestions, any links to any free or commercial solutions.

 

Thanks in advance!

How to manually change an object version status from "Rejected" to "Released" in CM/Synergy

Hello Support,

Can you please tell me if there is a CLI way to manually change the attribute "status" from rejected to released state for an object within CM/SYnergy?

I tried to delete "status" attribute. It doesn't even allow me to delete.

I am ccm_admin role.

If I do "ccm attr -s status object_full_name" it does show me a rejected. I need to change it to "released".

I know base model doesn't allow.

But i need to override for some objects with ccm_admin privilege.

Thank you.

version one Use Version Control to Unlock Your Development Velocity

Effective source code management provides a basis for every essential development best practice, including continuous integration and continuous delivery. The key is realizing just how much valuable metadata is being created in your source code management system and establishing the tools and procedures to make this information available.

desktop computers connected to data center Generating Configuration Management Databases Using Data-Driven Synthesis

The traditional configuration management database (CMDB) is big, complex, difficult to grow and change, and very expensive. Compiling data through data-driven synthesis gives IT organizations a better and more cost-effective method of providing the capabilities of a CMDB. This article explains data-driven synthesis, how it is used to generate CMDBs, and its measurable benefits.

Is there a best pratice, DoD, etc. best pratice terminology for Change Management Plan and/or Configuration Management Plan?

I am in the process of revising the current Change Management Plan to read as an Enterprise Change Management Plan to include functional systems and enclaves. Is there a DoD and/or ITIL standard for naming this document to be uniform accross the projects.

start, continue, and stop doing signs When Postmortems Meet Retrospectives: Improving Your Agile Process

If you want secure, reliable systems, you need all stakeholders actively communicating. This means involving both IT operations and developers in discussions after deployments, to ascertain if anything went wrong and can be avoided, and what went well or could be refined. Integrating your postmortems and retrospectives facilitates collaboration and improves processes.

building blocks The Risks and Rewards of Adopting a Microservices Architecture in Your DevOps Enterprise

Adopting microservices can be a great way to split up existing monolithic legacy applications in order to gain some flexibility and accelerate the development of new features. But the learning curve is steep, and you may need to make some sacrifices. Andrew Phillips outlines the potential impact this implementation can have on architecture and operations in an enterprise environment.
