You can set up a UDDI node with your own properties, including
the mandatory node properties. This type of UDDI node is suitable
for production purposes.
About this task
You can set up a customized UDDI node with property values
that you choose. After the node is initialized, you cannot change
the mandatory node properties, for example, the node ID.
Procedure
- See the information in Database considerations for production use of the UDDI registry to decide which database system to use,
then create a database schema to hold the UDDI registry by completing
one of the following tasks. Do not use the default node options where
specified.
- Set up a data source for the UDDI
registry application to use to access the database, as described in Creating a data source for the UDDI registry.
- Deploy the UDDI registry application, as
described in Deploying the UDDI registry application.
For
a DB2® database, stop the server if it is running.
Edit the user profile for the DB2 user that starts the server. Modify
the user profile to run the db2profile script, which is located in
the root directory of the DB2 user ID (for example, /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile).
Alternatively, you can run the db2profile script manually, but
you must do this every time that you restart the server. Enter
the following command (there is a single space character after the
period in this command):. /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile
- Click to display
the installed applications. Start the UDDI registry application by
selecting the check box next to the application name and clicking Start.
Alternatively, if the application server is not already running, start
the application server. This action automatically starts the UDDI
registry application. The UDDI node is now active.
If
you restart the UDDI application or the application server, the UDDI
node always reactivates, even if the node was previously deactivated.
What to do next
Because you chose a user-customized UDDI node, you must
set the properties for the UDDI node using UDDI administration, and
initialize the node, before it is ready to accept UDDI requests. See Initializing the UDDI registry node for details.
