Use Quick deploy to instantly deploy changes that the current user has made to DNS resource records since the last full or quick deployment.

Note:
  • The Quick deploy action is always available to Address Manager administrators. To make the action available to non-administrators, you need to assign the option to a user or user group as an access right. For more information on assigning access rights, refer to Access rights.
  • You must add at least one server to Address Manager and add a primary DNS deployment role in order to access the Quick deploy action.
  • You can Quick deploy to multiple servers, views, and zones.
  • Though the Quick deploy action is selected from individual zones and networks, if the user has made resource record changes to other zones and networks configured with the same primary server, those changes will also be deployed to the server. Review the confirmation window page selecting Quick deploy to confirm pending changes from all zones and networks before proceeding.
  • Only changes made by the user will be deployed. Changes made by other users will not be deployed, even if they have been made on the same zone or network as the changes from the Quick deploy user.
Note: If forward and reverse DNS zones are on separate servers Quick deploy won't deploy to both servers. This is normal behavior in Address Manager. If your configuration contains forward and reverse zones on separate servers, you can perform another Quick deploy under the subnet as a workaround.

To perform a quick deployment:

  1. Select the DNS tab in the sidebar, then select Views.
  2. Select the name of a view.
  3. Navigate to the parent zone that contains the resource record(s) you wish to quick deploy by selecting the parent zone's name in the Zones table, or by selecting the parent zone in the DNS tree view panel.
  4. Select the Resource records tab.
  5. Select Actions > Quick deploy.
  6. Check that the server listed in the confirmation window matches the intended server for quick deployment.
  7. In the Change control section, add comments if required.
  8. Select Deploy.
    Note: For instructions on how to view the status of all active deployments, refer to Tracking deployment.
