Uploade the Azure package to blob storage and deploy

Use a storage management tool

The ClumsyLeaf Software’s CloudXplorer tool is used in this procedure.

  1. Add a link to storage account using storage account name and access key from Storage Account section.
  2. Create a container within this storage account (KTA + version + build for example).
  3. Upload the .cspkg and .cloud.config to the above container.

Use the Azure management portal

  1. Delete the staging deployment (if existing) in the Cloud Service
  2. Create new staging deployment with the .cspkg and .cloud.config from BLOB storage.
  3. Once complete use the swap VIP option to move into Production.

    Note the following:

    • We create a new staging deployment as in-place upgrade does not replace the TS installed files only the contents of the package. See: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/hh472157.aspx.

    • You must not upload directly using the Azure Management Portal as the size limit is lower than Kofax TotalAgility package size and it will fail.
