WebSphere

Configuring Business Space as part of the Deployment Environment Configuration wizard

For WebSphere® Process Server and WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus runtime environments, Business Space configuration and Representational State Transfer (REST) service configuration for widgets in Business Space are automatically included in the Deployment Environment Configuration wizard. You can decide which REST services to configure.

About this task

Topic scope: This topic applies to the following products:
  • WebSphere Process Server
  • WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus

If you are setting up deployment manager and custom profiles, this is the simplest way to configure Business Space.

Procedure
  1. Click Servers > Deployment Environments > New. A series of pages in a wizard guides you through the process of creating your deployment environment.
  2. Either define the new deployment environment or import a file that contains deployment environment definitions. You can create a deployment environment based on one of the IBM-supplied patterns or you can create a custom deployment environment.
  3. On the Deployment Environment Patterns page, select one of the deployment environment patterns.
  4. On the Select Nodes page, designate the nodes to participate in your deployment environment.
  5. On the Clusters page, specify the number of cluster members from each node to assign to specific deployment environment functions.
  6. On the Database page, configure the data source for Business Space, one of the components listed in the table. You can edit the description, test the connection, and set the database product you want to use for the Provider. You cannot select the Create tables check box on this page for Business Space. Database tables must be configured manually for Business Space. The database product list contains all databases supported by each component.
  7. On the Security page, configure the authentication aliases WebSphere uses when accessing secure components. The authentication alias user name and password can be changed on this page. These aliases are used to access secure components but do not provide access to data sources.
  8. For WebSphere Process Server configuration, supply information required to configure the application deployment target to support the deployment of the Business Process Choreographer components. Specify the context roots, security and human task manager mail session values the wizard uses to configure Business Process Choreographer for this deployment environment.
  9. For WebSphere Process Server configuration, configure the business rules manager that will run on the cluster or server.
  10. On the System REST Service Endpoints help file page, configure the endpoints for the widgets you want available on Business Space for your runtime environment.
    • Type the port number and the host or virtual host that a client needs to communicate with the server or cluster.
    • If you leave the host and port fields empty, the values default to those of an individual cluster member host and its HTTP port. For a load-balanced environment, you must later change the default values to the virtual host name and port of your environment.
    • Set the description for the widgets if needed.
    .
  11. On the next page, click Finish or Finish and Generate Environment.
  12. Run the scripts to configure the database tables for Business Space before starting the deployment environment or the clusters. For more information, see "Configuring Business Space database tables."

What to do next

Before using Business Space, set up security that you need to use with Business Space and the widgets your team is using. For more information, see "Setting up security for Business Space."
