Change the Lifecycle Stage of an App Volumes Application Package Using Horizon Cloud

An App Volumes application package has different stages. These stages provide information about the state of delivery of the package. As an administrator, you can change the stage of a package after successfully capturing an application package.

When a package capture is successful, the status of the package is Ready and the package stage is automatically set to New. You can now change the package stages.

Note: The lifecycle of a package cannot be changed when the stage of the package is Unpackaged.

The stage of a package is automatically set to Unpackaged when the package is added to an application but not yet captured. The status of the package is Ready for capture.

The lifecycle stages of a package are as follows:

• New

  Package is ready to be tested.

• Tested

  Package testing is done and the package is ready to be published.

• Published

  Package is published for users who are assigned to the package.

• Retired

  Packages are no longer required or updated.

  Entities can still be assigned to applications with retired packages.

Prerequisites

Ensure that the package is captured and the status of the package is Ready.

To capture an application package, see Capture an App Volumes Application Package Using Horizon Cloud.

2. Select the desired package.
