How does an IBM UrbanCode Deploy server execute the deployment on target servers?
The most frequently used step in an UrbanCode Deploy process is ''Download Artifacts'' from theVersioned File Storage plugin. Located in the step tree under ''Repositories'' adding it to your process indicates when you want to pull down the files associated with the component version being deployed.
When this step is executed, a master server sends a JMS message to the Agent with details of the files to retrieve. The Agent then makes a series of HTTP(s) requests to the central server to download the desired files to the desired location. Each request maystream many files. The important thing to keep in mind is that this step (like all steps) is being run on the agent. Thus, it is named ''Download'' not ''Push''.
