Adding Virtual Service using an Existing Native Service
You can create a virtual service asset from an existing native service asset. However, if you want to configure the run-time policies for the newly created virtual service asset using CentraSite, the RuntimeComponentSetting in the centrasite.xml file must be enabled. For information on enabling run-time aspects from CentraSite, see Enabling CentraSite Run-Time Aspects.
When run-time aspects are enabled in CentraSite, then the creation of a virtual service from a native service would involve the following three steps. Else, only the first of the following three can be performed from CentraSite. In such scenario, the run-time policies can be configured from gateways to which the APIs are published.
1. Creating a virtual copy (proxy) of the existing Native Web Service asset. For procedures, see Create Virtual Service.
2. Configuring the run-time policy actions for the Virtual Web Service asset. For procedures, see Assign Policy Actions for Virtual Service.
3. Implementing the virtualization of the existing Native Web Service asset, and publishing the Virtual Web Service asset to one or more gateways. For procedures, see Virtualize and Publish Virtual Service to Gateways.
