Deploying From CA SCM

Using Trilogy to front Deployment Manager with a dialog means that we can have a CA SCM UDP (User-Defined Process) that pops up a deployment dialog for the user to interact with before we start a deployment. When run in this manner the user's context is taken into account and they are only presented with a list of environments that are valid targets from the given context state.

When the user clicks OK, Deployment Manager is invoked server-side by Trilogy and the deployment begins.

When run in this manner, the user's context can also be used to retrieve login credentials or even the configuration file itself.
