The Properties of a Connector Virtual Service (SOAP)
 
Managing a Connector Virtual Service (SOAP)
*To view the properties of a connector virtual service (SOAP)
1. Open Software AG Designer and display the CloudStreams Development perspective by clicking Window > Open Perspective > Other > CloudStreams Development.
2. In the CloudStreams Governance view, expand your CloudStreams Governance project and click the virtual service name. (If the Properties view is not already open, click Window > Show View > Other > General > Properties.)
3. The General page in the Properties view displays the following properties:
Option
Description
Name
(Read-only field.) The service name. You can change the service name at any time by right-clicking the name in the Connector Virtual Services folder and clicking Rename.
Service Type
(Read-only field.) SOAP.
Created/Last Modified
(Read-only field.) The service's creation/modification timestamps.
Target Namespace
(Read-only field.) The value derived from the targetNamespace attributes of the WSDL's definition element.
Namespaces
Click the button next to this field to view the service's available namespaces (such as wsdl, xsd, soap, etc.).
Version
The version is always set to 1.0.
WSDL URL
(Read-only field.) The URL of the service's WSDL.
Description
You can change the service description.
4. View additional properties in the Advanced page.
Option
Description
Name
(Read-only field.) The service name.
Type
(Read-only field.) The type of the service (SOAP).
Target Namespace
(Read-only field.) The value derived from the targetNamespace attributes of the WSDL's definition element.
WSDL URL
Click this URL to display the contents of the service's abstract WSDL. This is an internal WSDL used by CloudStreams primarily to manage deployment of connector virtual services to a CloudStreams target. The native provider's WSDL that was defined for the connector is what is used when the connector service is configured.
Namespaces
Click the button next to this field to view the service's available namespaces (such as wsdl, xsd, soap, etc.).
Version
(Read-only field.)
Description
(Read-only field.) The service description.
VSD
Click the button next to this field to view the service's virtual service definition (VSD). This button is disabled until you deploy the connector virtual service to a CloudStreams server.
When you deploy the connector virtual service to a CloudStreams server, CloudStreams generates an XML document called a virtual service definition (VSD). The VSD defines the connector virtual service for CloudStreams, and contains all the resources required to deploy the connector virtual service to a CloudStreams server, including the policy that applies to the service. You cannot edit the VSD.
Note:
If multiple policies apply to the service, CloudStreams combines all those policies into a single policy known as the effective policy. The effective policy is a simple UNION of the run-time actions specified in all policies that apply to a service. To create the effective policy, CloudStreams evaluates the combined list of actions from all policies, using a set of internal rules known as Policy Conflict Resolution rules. For details, see Policy Conflict Resolution Rules.
Applicable Policies
Click the button next to this field to view a list of the active policies that apply to this service. Any inactive policy that applies to the service is not listed. To change the list of applicable policies, see Modifying Policies.
Endpoint
(Read-only field). The endpoint is resolved when the connector service is configured and the user selects an enabled managed connection pool.
Deployed Status
(Read-only field.) Indicates whether the service is Deployed, Undeployed or Not Deployed (which is the initial status before you deploy the service). To deploy or undeploy a service, see Deploying Virtual Services and Connector Virtual Services.
Resource
Not applicable to SOAP services.
