The libraryVersionDeploy Method

Deploy a new library version to the server or cluster. This process is asynchronous – the initial request will wait until the library is uploaded and verified, and the initial response will show information about the library being deployed – however the staging and activation process will proceed after the response is returned. The user is expected to continue checking the library version status using the libraryVersionGetStatus method until the deployment process is complete.

Note:

When the last library version from some library is removed the library itself is removed also.

Version: 1.5

Required Permissions: Full

HTTP method: POST

Supported by Editions: Zend Server

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
libPackage	File	Yes	Library package file. Content type for the file must be library/vnd.zend.librarypackage’.
ignoreFailures	Boolean	No	Ignore failures during removing library versions if only some servers reported failures; If all servers report failures the operation will fail in any case. The default value is FALSE – meaning any failure will return an error.

Expected Response Code: 202 Accepted - For more information see Response Format.

Response Type: libraryStatus

Possible Action Specific Error Codes:

HTTP Code	Error Code	Description
