Failure on some environments in a phase

   Hi,

   Thanks for getting in touch!

   What you are seeing in the result of how we configure a deployment by default. When you trigger a deployment we deploy to machines in parallel (up to our task cap which by default is 5), and any error in the deployment will prevent any remaining actions from occurring. So, to try and explain that a little better what is happening in your case is:

   Trigger deployment to 10 machines

   Machine 1 - Start
   Machine 2 - Start
   Machine 3 - Start
   Machine 4 - Start
   Machine 5 - Start
   Machine 6 - Pending
   Machine 7 - Pending
   Machine 8 - Pending
   Machine 9 - Pending
   Machine 10 - Pending
   

   So when one of the deployments fail (lets say on machine 4) the following occurs:

   Machine 1 - Complete
   Machine 2 - Complete
   Machine 3 - Complete
   Machine 4 - Error
   Machine 5 - Complete
   Machine 6 - Cancelled
   Machine 7 - Cancelled
   Machine 8 - Cancelled
   Machine 9 - Cancelled
   Machine 10 - Cancelled
   

   This is by design, however you can set this project to use Guided failure mode (which is in the settings of the project itself). What this will allow is that if a deployment does fail to a particular machine it will pause the deployment waiting for your interaction, and you can choose to continue to the remaining machines.

   I hope that helps with understanding what is happening with your deployment, please let me know if there is anything else that I can help you with.

   Regards,

   Alex
