If you chose to install the WebSphere® Process Server and WebSphere
Enterprise Service Bus test environment profiles when you installed WebSphere Integration
Developer, then you will already have default test environment servers. However,
if you deleted one or both of these default servers or if you are working
with a standalone installation of WebSphere Process Server or WebSphere
Enterprise Service Bus, you will need to create one or more test environment
servers for testing your modules.
To create servers:
- In the Business Integration or Debug perspective, click the Servers tab
to open the Servers view.
- In the Servers view, right-click anywhere in the view and select New
> Server. The New Server wizard opens to the Define a New Server
page.
- In the Host Name field, ensure that the
correct host name is selected for the server that you want to create. By default,
the host name localhost (IP address 127.0.0.1)
is automatically selected, which is the appropriate selection if you chose
to install the integrated test environment when you installed WebSphere Integration
Developer. However, you can also type or select another fully-qualified DNS
name or IP address if you chose to install standalone WebSphere Process Server or WebSphere
Enterprise Service Bus on a different machine than WebSphere Integration Developer.
- In the Select the server type list box,
select one of the following server types:
- If you want to be able to deploy all types of modules (including mediation
modules) to the server, select WebSphere Process v6.0 Server.
This enables you to run all business integration components that can be created
in WebSphere Integration Developer, such as BPEL business processes, state
machines, human tasks, transition tables, business rules, selectors, mediation
flows, and other resources.
- If you only want to be able to deploy mediation modules, you can select WebSphere
ESB Server v6.0. This enables you to run mediation flows.
Generally, if your module is a mediation module and you intend to eventually
deploy it to a WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus production server, then WebSphere
ESB Server v6.0 is a good choice. However, if you intend to eventually
deploy your mediation module to a WebSphere Process Server production
server, then you may want to select WebSphere Process v6.0 Server.
- Click Next. The WebSphere Server Settings page opens.
- Edit the settings in the WebSphere Server Settings page as
required. You can obtain contextual help information for any individual field
or control by selecting a field or control and pressing F1.
- Click Next again. The Add and Remove Projects
page opens.
- On the Add and Remove Projects page, select one or more modules
to add to the server. Information about adding modules to a server is found
in the topic "Adding modules to servers."
- Click Finish. The new server is now displayed
in the Servers view.
