Deploying or Undeploying a Filter

Deploying a filter submits its settings and filters to the RSRemote queue. At this point, the filter will start executing as long as it has been made Active.

When deploying, you can choose from the following options:

• Remove and replace existing filters on a single queue—Requires the selection of a single RSRemote queue. All previously deployed filters (if any) on the queue are undeployed before deploying the selected filters.
• Remove and replace existing filters on multiple queues—Same as the previous strategy, but allows applying it to multiple RSRemote queues that you are prompted to select.
• Append to existing filters on multiple queues—Deploys the selected filters to one or more RSRemote queues without affecting previously deployed filters (if any). If your selection contains filters that were previously deployed, they will be ignored. You are prompted to select the RSRemote queues where you want to deploy.

All the above actions are final and cannot be reversed unless you deploy new versions of the filters.

Removing and Replacing Existing Filters on a Single Queue

You can deploy one or more filters on a specified queue, replacing all previously deployed filters on it.

1. Log in to the Actions Pro web portal.
2. From the Main Menu, go to Remote Administration > Gateway Filter Administration.
3. At the top of the page, take the following actions:
   1. In Gateway Type, ensure that you have selected the gateway type whose filters you will be deploying.
   2. In Gateway (Queue), ensure that you have selected the gateway queue where you want to deploy the filter.
4. Check the box in front of the filter or filters that you want to deploy.
5. At the top, click the Deploy button and then select Remove and replace filters on Gateway Queue.
6. Click Confirm.

You can track the process of the deployment in the window or you can close it.

The newly deployed filter will show a green check mark in its Deployed column upon successful deployment.

Removing and Replacing Existing Filters on Multiple Queues

You can deploy one or more filters to a two or more queues, replacing all previously deployed filters on them.

1. Log in to the Actions Pro web portal.
2. From the Main Menu, go to Remote Administration > Gateway Filter Administration.
3. At the top of the page, in Gateway Type, ensure that you have selected the gateway type whose filters you will be deploying.
4. Check the box in front of the filter or filters that you want to deploy.
5. At the top, click the Deploy button and then select Remove and replace filters on multiple Gateway Queues.

7. Click Confirm.

The newly deployed filter will show a green check mark in its Deployed column upon successful deployment.

Appending to Existing Filters on Multiple Queues

If you don't want to affect any previously deployed filters, you have the option to deploy to one or more queues with appending. If your selection contains filters that were previously deployed, they will be ignored.

1. Log in to the Actions Pro web portal.
2. From the Main Menu, go to Remote Administration > Gateway Filter Administration.
3. At the top of the page, in Gateway Type, ensure that you have selected the gateway type whose filters you will be deploying.
4. Check the box in front of the filter or filters that you want to deploy.
5. At the top, click the Deploy button and then select Append to existing filters on multiple Gateway Queues. The Deploy to multiple gateways window appears.
6. Select the gateway queues where you want to deploy the filters and then click Deploy.
7. Click Confirm.

The newly deployed filter will show a green check mark in its Deployed column upon successful deployment.

Undeploying a Filter

To stop the automatic execution of a filter, you need to undeploy it. This operation does not delete the filter; it just removes if from the specified queue. You can deploy it back at any time to the same or a different queue.

1. Log in to the Actions Pro web portal.
2. From the Main Menu, go to Remote Administration > Gateway Filter Administration.
3. At the top of the page, take the following actions:
   1. In Gateway Type, ensure that you have selected the gateway from which you will be undeploying.
   2. In Gateway (Queue), ensure that you have selected the gateway from which you will be undeploying.
4. Check the box in front of the filter or filters that you want to undeploy.
5. At the top, click the Delete from this Gateway Queue button.
6. Click Confirm.
