Hi,

I do not know all details in the customization process, but why can’t you customize deploy.ini? There are lot of non-layered files that you are allowed to customize. It is too bad a bit messier to such a file since you need to do an overtake of the entire file. If there are changes in the file from RnD when taking an update, you need to re-do the customizations. However, there are tooling support to assist you in this.

Note! I am no expert on customization, but I have not heard about any exceptions for the deploy.ini file

Hi Damith,

In UPD applying process, a file will be replaced with the latest archive file of that update, if and only if that file doesn't have any version maintained with package suffixed with C_ (customizations) or B_ (local fixes) and file should have only versions created with P_ packages.

So if we add a version to a file with C_ package, then update analyzer will not replace that file with latest UPD archive file, instead it shows the conflicts of that file with customized version during the analyzing time of the UPD.

Thank You and Best Regards,
Dammika 

Hi @Mats B 

I’m not sure if we can consider deploy.ini file as same as other non-layered files since it’s not recognized in the developer studio project and any changes to the file should done manually. 

However, to overcome my problem, I followed option one and customized the  <component>_Installation utility, override Post_Installation_Data procedure and added my script segment there.

Cheers!
