Deploying a WebSphere Message Broker Basic pattern

Use the IBM® Hardware Appliances to deploy a pattern and create virtual systems in the cloud. You can deploy any pattern defined in the IBM Hardware Appliances, including the predefined patterns loaded with the WebSphere® Message Broker Hypervisor Edition virtual machine image, or custom patterns that you create.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have loaded the WebSphere Message Broker Hypervisor Edition image on the IBM Hardware Appliances and that you have a predefined or custom pattern ready to be deployed.

Predefined patterns are not configurable, however, customs patterns can be configured. To configure a custom Basic pattern, see Configuring a WebSphere Message Broker Basic pattern.

Procedure

During deployment, you must provide values for all required parameters that do not already have values assigned. In some cases, you can override default or existing values for parameters.

  1. Log in to the appliance with the necessary permissions to deploy patterns.
  2. Select the pattern you want to deploy, from the list in the left panel of the Pattern view.
  3. Click Deploy to begin the deployment process and enter the information necessary for deploying the pattern. An asterisk (*) indicates a required field.
  4. Provide the necessary information for the pattern. When a check mark is shown on the clipboard icon next to an item, you have provided all required information for that item. All items must have a check mark before you can deploy the pattern. Because patterns vary, the information you must supply varies. Consult the IBM Hardware Appliances Information Centers and the pattern developer for complete descriptions of the fields defined for the parts in the pattern, including any fields added by script packages. The following information helps you to complete the fields that are displayed in the deployment dialog box:
    1. Name the virtual system you are creating when you deploy the pattern.
    2. Specify the cloud you are deploying into.
    3. Use the Schedule deployment section to specify when to deploy and how long the virtual system runs in the cloud.
    4. Use the Configure virtual parts section to list all of the parts in your pattern and provide any necessary information. For example, passwords.
  5. When all items in the dialog box have a check mark next to them, click OK to deploy the pattern.

Results

A virtual system in the cloud is created with the configuration defined by the deployed pattern.
