Automation scripts for BMC Application Automation

This topic lists default scripts that you can import to perform functions in BMC Application Automation. Scripts can be of the following types:

  • Automation scripts: This type of script helps you perform actual functions (for example, execute a job on the specified targets, create and optionally run a deploy job, and so on) in BMC Application Automation by using the BMC Release Process Management user interface. 
  • Resource automation scripts: This type of script helps in retrieving necessary data from BMC Application Automation to enable the operation of automation scripts.

Notes

  • These automation scripts are Ruby scripts that directly communicate with BMC Application Automation to execute operations.
  • Import all the resource automation scripts before importing the automation scripts. Unless the resource automation scripts are already imported, automation scripts that depend on them cannot work.
  • If the automation script that you add in a step fails, you cannot view relevant output parameters that provide details such as the job status, target status, and so on.

The following table provides links to the topics on the automation scripts that are available by default with the product. The associated resource automation scripts are described in each of the automation script topics.
