Scenario: Adding an additional runtime to the pattern

The Governance Enablement Profile comes with a pre-defined environment classification system that contains four distinct environments; Development, Test, Staging, and Production.

About this task

The Staging and Production environments are also codified in the SOA lifecycle that defines the lifecycle of Capability Versions, such as Service Versions. This means that there are states and transitions that are specific to the Staging and Production environments, thus allowing for controlled promotion into these runtimes by defining the target systems in the promotion configuration file. This is appropriate if your organization defines environments in the same way, with Staging as a pre-Production environment that allows testing before allowing the Capability Version to be opened to generalized use. However, many organizations require additional environments, so modifications are needed in the profile to accommodate these differences. This section describes one way that a new runtime environment can be added into the WSRR Governance Enablement Profile.

Procedure

  1. Deploy the predefined SOA Policy Gateway Governance Master. For more information, see Deploying the SOA Policy Gateway Governance Master pattern.
  2. Optional: Modify the WSRR Governance Enablement Profile. For more information, see IBM WebSphere® Service Registry and Repository Version 8.0 Information Center - Tutorial: Customizing runtime environments.
  3. Configure the SOA Policy Gateway Basic Runtime or SOA Policy Gateway Advanced Runtime patterns with the Governance Master details. For more information, see SOA Policy Gateway Governance Master deployment information.
    Note: The promotion environment value must be set to Unset.
  4. Deploy the predefined SOA Policy Gateway Basic Runtime or SOA Policy Gateway Advanced Runtime. For more information, see Deploying the SOA Policy Gateway Basic Runtime pattern and Deploying the SOA Policy Gateway Advanced Runtime pattern.
