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
- Click . A series of pages in a wizard guides you through the process
of creating your deployment environment.
- 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.
- On the Deployment Environment Patterns page,
select one of the deployment environment patterns.
- On the Select Nodes page, designate
the nodes to participate in your deployment environment.
- On the Clusters page, specify the
number of cluster members from each node to assign to specific deployment
environment functions.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- For WebSphere Process
Server configuration, configure the business rules manager that will
run on the cluster or server.
- 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.
.
- On the next page, click Finish or Finish
and Generate Environment.
- 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."
