Deploying patterns with IBM® Workload
Deployer 3.1.0.2 or IBM SOA
Policy Gateway Pattern into
the cloud provides a running IBM PureApplication
System environment.
You can deploy the predefined patterns available with the IBM SOA
Policy Gateway Pattern images,
or deploy patterns that you have created.
Before you begin
To deploy a pattern you must first have either a predefined
pattern or a new pattern that is complete, with all required parts
configured.
About this task
Deploying a pattern creates a virtual system, or a newly
provisioned
IBM SOA
Policy Gateway Pattern runtime
environment, that is running in the cloud.
Procedure
To deploy the IBM SOA
Policy Gateway Patterns
to run in your private cloud, complete the following steps:
- From the list of patterns in the Virtual System Patterns
window, select the pattern to deploy.
- Click the Deploy icon.
- Complete the required fields to deploy the pattern. In
the window, enter a name for the virtual system and enter any other
required information. A check mark beside each item indicates that
it does not require further configuration. You can change the parameters
for configured parts, prior to deploying the pattern, by clicking
the part name to open the editor for the part. Virtual machines are
created, in the required order, and then started.
Results
The deployment process creates and starts virtual machines
for the parts defined and provides links to required consoles. The
time for the deployment depends on the complexity of the pattern being
deployed. A deployed pattern is a virtual system, or a newly provisioned
the
IBM SOA
Policy Gateway Pattern runtime
environment.
What to do next
You can view the status of your instance, to see when deployment
is complete and begin to administer it, from the Virtual System Instances
window.
