Environments
Assign one Environment to each local Silo and create custom Environments when needed.
Environments provide a simple way to describe the operational stage of each local Silo.
Built-in Environments
Bridge includes Production, Staging, Development and Test. These built-in choices remain available for every Host.
Assign an Environment
Choose the Environment while creating a Ready or Unconfigured Silo, or change it later from Bridge → Sites → Silo Control Centre. A local Silo belongs to one Environment at a time.
Create a custom Environment
Open Bridge → Targets and add a custom Environment when the built-in choices do not describe your workflow. Use a short, clear name that other Host administrators will understand.
Use in Policies and Deployments
Choose an Environment as the Target when a Policy Baseline or Change Set should apply to every Silo currently in that Environment.
Removing a custom Environment
Move its Silos elsewhere and update anything that still uses it first. Bridge prevents removal while the Environment is still in use.
