Managing deployment profiles

A deployment profile associates specified Web Server(s) and PowerServer(s) as a group used for Web or mobile deployment. You may create several deployment profiles (e.g. local deployment, test deployment, production deployment, and so on), and set the most commonly used profile as the default profile.

A deployment profile is based on server profiles. Before configuring the deployment profiles, make sure you have set up one server profile for each of the PowerServer and Web Servers to be used for the Web or mobile conversion. You can add as many deployment profiles as you need, but there can be only one default deployment profile.
