Goal

How to notify the engine at the end of the deployment using ant:publish script

Q1. If we need to deploy multiple projects using ant:publish task, it is better, not to enable
"notification" to the engine as Project 1 might have dependency on Project 3 as part of the new
release. Hence we need to notify the engine after deploying all the projects ie., projects 1, 2
and 3. In this way, Project 1 cannot be active before Project 3 in case there is any delay in
publishing project 3. If all the projects are deployed using ant:publish task with
"notifyengine=no", then after deploying all the projects, how do we notify the engine so that
newer versions of the projects are automatically loaded by the BPM engine? Disabling the
notification would resolve the delay.


Q2. Is there any automatic internal scheduled task which runs every minute or so as to notify the
engine with information related to deployed processes, so that engine can load the modified
processes?


Q3. As an alternative, at the end of the deployment process via the ant task, we could also
publish a sample project with notification turned on. Once this project is deployed and the engine
is notified, will the engine load all the deployed processes or is it going to load on this sample
project for which notification is set?
