A HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) installation consists of a Deploy server, a database server, and at least one agent.
Learn how to uninstall the HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) server, and agent.
This topic describes the communication between the HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) components, the firewall, and the ports involved in the communication.
HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) requires a database. You can use the following database types for an evaluation or production server.
The server provides services such as the user interface used to configure application deployments, the security service, and the artifact repository, among others. Installing the server involves specifying configuration information for the server, such as the ports that the server uses.
The HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) server can be installed in a cloud-based environment, as a containerized server cluster, managed by Kubernetes. Deploy works with Kubernetes to simplify application deployment and manage versions in the containers.
You can install agents from the server or from the command line on the agent system. To configure a failover server for an agent, you must install the agent from the command line.
An agent relay is a communication proxy for agents that are located behind a firewall or in another network location. You can install agent relays in interactive mode or in silent mode.
Plug-ins can be installed at any time. You do not need to restart the server after you install a plug-in.
Both UNIX™ and Windows™ installations require the HCL DevOps Deploy (Deploy) server and at least one agent. If you are using a database other than Derby, make sure that the appropriate driver is installed and configured.
Test fixes are provided to correct specific issues. They are applied to the server as patches.
To uninstall the server, stop the server and then delete the main directory for the server.
To uninstall the agent, stop it, remove its service and registry keys, and delete its files.
