Steps involved in Deploying the code

1. Login to Primary application server with application service account (usually - expprodl/expdev01)
2. We use capistrano for deployment and the script is located in as mentioned below;
   1. /home/expprodl/crossbow/
   2. runcap.sh is the main interactive script
   3. config folder contains the actual capistrano script for deployment
   4. deploy folder inside config folder contains environment variables (be sure to modify the staging/development/production.rb file before continuing)
3. Run the initial script using ./runcap.sh
4. select the evironment Staging or Production and continue
5. The menu is self explanatory.
6. Be sure to check the version/Tag for the release and check with Developers before deploying - https://wiki.exphosted.com/doku.php/releasespecifictasks

1. Once code is deployed on both the application servers update the collaboration servers with latest version of compatible recorder server.
   1. login as expbbbp/expbbbu
   2. Navigate to /home/expbbbp/bin/
   3. Run ./deploybbbclient.sh (Enter the release/Tag when asked - https://wiki.exphosted.com/doku.php/releasespecifictasks)
   4. Then Run ./deploy_recorder_server.sh (Enter the release/Tag when asked - https://wiki.exphosted.com/doku.php/releasespecifictasks)
