Here is a code snippet that can be used for the rollout from the JSP level, same way you can do it in JAVA level.

<%@page import="com.day.cq.wcm.msm.api.RolloutManager"%>

<% Page rolloutthispage = pageManager.getPage("/content/geometrixx/en/toolbar"); //source page
RolloutManager.RolloutParams rolloutparams = new RolloutManager.RolloutParams();
rolloutparams.master = rolloutthispage; 
rolloutparams.isDeep = true;
//rolloutmanager is an OSGI service so using here sling.getService to have a reference
com.day.cq.wcm.msm.api.RolloutManager rolloutManager = sling.getService(com.day.cq.wcm.msm.api.RolloutManager.class);
rolloutManager.rollout(rolloutparams);
%>

To Test this code snippet

I have created a live copy from /content/geometrixx/en/ to /content/geometrixx/in Added/updated some text component data as shown below

Created a component just used for calling this jsp logic called the JSP logic from some other project page. once the jsp logic got called, The rollout got affected in the /content/geometrixx/in live copy.

Have a look at the below APIs to use more options RolloutManager,Trigger,RolloutParams

Hope it helps

Thanks dude, also work it out how to do it using the RolloutManager as you explain in your answer, I will put my code and answer too. — Diego Nieto, Jan 20 '17 at 15:06
I would like to note that `rolloutManager.rollout(ResourceResolver resolver, LiveRelationship relation, boolean reset, boolean autoSave)` does not behave exactly like `rolloutManager(RolloutManager.RolloutParams params)` and the former should be avoided. — Michael Shopsin, Feb 08 '18 at 21:36

After some research, I found how to launch a rollout programmatically:

In this specific case, I did it inside a workflow:

        @Reference
        private RolloutManager rolloutManager;
        @Reference
        private ResourceResolverFactory resourceResolverFactory;

        private Session session;
        private ResourceResolver resolver;
        private PageManager pageManager;

        public class MyWorkflow implements WorkflowProcess {
            @Override
            public void execute(WorkItem workItem, WorkflowSession workflowSession, MetaDataMap dataMap) throws WorkflowException {
               //get the payload page from the workflow data
               WorkflowData workflowData = workItem.getWorkflowData();
               String payload = workflowData.getPayload().toString();

               final Map<String, Object> authInfo = new HashMap<String, Object>();
               authInfo.put(JcrResourceConstants.AUTHENTICATION_INFO_SESSION, workflowSession.getSession());
               resolver = resourceResolverFactory.getResourceResolver(authInfo);

               //Get Instance of PageManager
               pageManager = resolver.adaptTo(PageManager.class);
               final Page targetPage = pageManager.getPage(payload);

               final RolloutParams params = new RolloutParams();
               params.isDeep = false;
               params.master = targetPage;
               params.reset = false;
               params.trigger = RolloutManager.Trigger.ROLLOUT;
               params.delete = false;
               rolloutManager.rollout(params);

            }
        }

This works as expected, rolling out the page to the related live copies
