OD-DD Sync - best practice?

System

I'm looking at dojng a DD-OD sync and was wondering what the best practices are for this?

Basically, I need to send data, database tables and views (which I've created) to the following places:
data (DCR's) need to deploy to two servers
database tables/views need to deploy to one database server

In looking at the forum posts - it appears that ddgen.ipl generates the loaddb.cfg?

then tsxml.cfg - is used to deploy the DCR's

In all the manuals I have - documentation is very sketchy on usage of these mechanisms - what is the best way to achieve what I want to do?
