Using azure devops to deploy to an offline server

Question

I'm using azure devops pipeline to build my IIS application and deploy via release management to several different servers, and it works great. My issue though is that one of the servers I need to deploy to will always be offline, so I need to set up some sort of offline installer for that deployment. Is there a way to do this using the build and release management I already have that I'm not seeing?

Answer 1

Azure Pipelines assumes that the server is always available. Best I can think of is to generate some kind of drop on a fileshare and then add a Manual Intervention Task to pause the pipeline and allow you to do your thing.

There is no air-gapped agent nor a way to run part of your pipeline on another system and import the results.
