Deploying the IBM® SOA
Policy Pattern creates
a running virtual system instance of the pattern.
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 instance that
is running in the cloud.
Procedure
To deploy the IBM SOA
Policy Pattern,
complete the following steps:
- Click
- From the Virtual System Patterns list, select the pattern
to deploy.
- Click the Deploy icon.
- Complete the required fields to deploy the pattern. A check mark beside each item indicates that it does not require
further configuration.
- In the Virtual system name box,
enter a name for the instance.
- Optional: To change the parameters for configured
parts, click Configure virtual parts then
click the part name to open the editor for the part.
Note: Usernames
and passwords are preconfigured with default values within the configuration
settings. For more information, see the part details for each part
Parts.
- Click OK to deploy the pattern.
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
IBM SOA
Policy Pattern runtime
environment.
What to do next
To view the status of your instance, to see when deployment
is complete and to administer it, click and select the
instance from the Virtual System Instances list. For more information
about viewing the details of an instance or using it, see
Working with the deployed instance.
To verify the success
of the deployment, see Verify the deployment.
To
test the deployment by sending some sample messages, see Tutorial: Working with the sample application.
