Because of it contains live data and for each site it's the most problably different while codebase mostly are identical and does not contain live data. But of course auto-update for DB structure must be available as an option. I'm not sure however if this has to be symfony plugin. It may work as a pake task like it's for rsync but you'll have to keep DB access passwords in analogue of properies.yml file and also you'll have to open external access for your remoted DBs (for each host). Generally, it does not sound like something fantastic. The other option is to mark changes somehow in schema.yml file so it's clearer what was changed and why. Interesting to browse web and find which automated solutions are done for this problem in another frameworks. Frankly to say I've never heard of something like this.

What I do is create a shell or php update script with db or cron changes or wherever else I have to modify and it's coping to the other hosts along with codebase and than I go to each account and run this script by hands. If you have permanent updating process you may do it more sophisticated - e.g. setup a cron on each hosts which will be running up update.sh script daily or hourly so you wont need to do that manually.

But what i'm missing is some kind of Rsync but on the structure of a database :) If you're updating the structure of your database, you must do the same on the n deployment servers... by hand :) Rsync is so powerful for deployment tasks !
