Creating or modifying tokens in Deployment Solution

In Deployment Solution, a system token is a type of variable, which is replaced with unique deployment-related data that is retrieved from the database. You can insert these variable tokens in scripts or answer files to extract information from the database. Deployment Solution provides you with the option to create tokenized scripts through the console as well as has predefined tokens to use.
