Editing a Region Release Task Created Using Manual Configurations

This section describes how to edit a region release task created by Creating a Region Release Task Using Manual Configurations.

Prerequisites

Procedure

  1. Log in to ServiceStage.
  2. Choose Release Management.

    • If the Release Management page of the new version is displayed by default, go to 4.

      Overview describes release management of the new version.

      Overview describes release management of the old version.

  3. Click Try new edition now or Try New Edition to switch to the Release Management page of the new version.

    The data of the old and new versions are isolated. Switching them will not cause release task data loss.

  4. Choose Region Release Tasks.
