Deploying Virtual Services from the Deployment Page
The following procedure describes how to deploy, undeploy, and redeploy Virtual Services to Mediator target.
To deploy, undeploy, or redeploy a Virtual Service
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Operations > Deployment.
2. In the Deployed Assets tab, click Deploy.
The Deployed Assets tab displays the following information for a Virtual Service:
Column | Description |
Pending Changes | Indicates the deployment status of the Virtual Service. |
Icon | Description |
| The service is deployed to the target. |
| The service is pending deployment to the target. |
Deployment ID | The deployment ID of the Virtual Service. |
Name | Name of the Virtual Service. |
Status | The deployment status of the Virtual Service (Deployed/Failed). |
Date/Time | The date/time that the deployment occurred. |
User ID | The ID of the Integration Server user to be used for deployment operation. |
Type | The modification that is performed on a deployed Virtual Service. |
Label | Description |
Processing Step Changes | Reflects any change that is performed in the Processing Steps tab of a Virtual Service. For example, modifying the HTTP authentication mode. |
Runtime Policy Changes | Reflects any change that is performed in the runtime policy associated to a Virtual Service. For example, deactivating an associated runtime policy. |
WSDL Changes | Reflects any change that is performed in the input WSDL file of a Virtual Service. For example, modifying an existing asset file or uploading a new asset file. |
3. In the Select a Target and Services to be Deployed on the Selected Target dialog box, do a keyword search or an advances search, as described later in this topic, for the list of available Virtual Services, and then click OK.
A list of Virtual Services that are ready for deployment is displayed.
The deployment process is carried out by a synchronous mechanism between CentraSite and Mediator:
a. CentraSite pushes the Virtual Service that is ready for deployment to Mediator.
b. Instantly, the Mediator deploys the Virtual Service that was received from CentraSite (along with its effective run-time policy), and notifies CentraSite when the deployment process is complete.
Important:
If the status shown in the Deployment Status column does not automatically switch to Deployed, click the Refresh button to determine whether CentraSite was able to deploy the Virtual Service successfully. If the deployment process failed, identify and correct the error and then try deploying the Virtual Service again.
4. To undeploy the Virtual Service, select one or more targets, and on the Actions menu, click Undeploy.
If the undeployment is successful, Mediator's deployer service returns a success message, and data that is pertinent to the undeployed Virtual Service. In addition, CentraSite's Deployment Manager logs information about the undeployment in the Deployment log. If the undeployment is unsuccessful, the deployer service returns a failure message.
Important:
If the status shown in the Deployment Status column does not automatically switch to Undeployed, click the Refresh button to determine whether CentraSite was able to undeploy the Virtual Services successfully. If the undeployment process failed, identify, and correct the error and then try undeploying the Virtual Service again.
5. To redeploy the Virtual Service, select one or more targets, and on the Actions menu, click Redeploy.
Important:
If the status shown in the Deployment Status column does not automatically switch to Deployed, click the Refresh button to determine whether CentraSite was able to redeploy the Virtual Services successfully. If the redeployment process failed, identify and correct the error and then try redeploying the Virtual Service again.
6. In the Deployment Log, check for any errors that occurred during the deployment process.
