▪ CLN – Clone

— Refreshed daily to assist with troubleshooting production issues.

Automation

■ Development Tools

▪ VBScript

▪ PowerShell

▪ Countless Scripting Tools

▪ SQL

▪ DOS

■ Guidelines

▪ Use variables in your program instead of hard coding the target

environment and ports. This will save a great deal of time of not

having to maintain numerous individual scripts.

▪ Encrypted Passwords can be used

— Password = '0yEP+Yv1CTyag='

Port Strategy

■ Retaining last two port characters for the same services makes it easy to find and replace all ports on Application Server and Process Scheduler configuration files

Web Profile

■ Web Profiles DEV, TEST and PROD

■ Authentication Domain

▪ Delete row from PSWEBPROFNVP

— where WEBPROFILENAME = [Variable] and PROPERTYNAME =

‘AUTHTOKENDOMAIN’

User Assigned Roles - Build SQL with Excel

■ Formulas

▪ Insert/Value Statement

— = "insert into PSROLEUSER values ('" & A2 &"','" & B2 & ",'N'" & ")“

▪ Insert/Select Where not Exists. Prevents Insert Statements from

Failing

— = "insert into PSROLEUSER SELECT '" & A2 & "','" & B2 & "','N'" & "
