Configuring Saving or Restoring of the Service Pipeline at Run Time
*To configure saving or restoring of the service pipeline at run time
1. In the Package Navigator, open the service that you want to configure.
2. Under the Run time category in the Properties view, select one of the following from the Pipeline Debug property:
Select...
To...
None
Run the service without saving or restoring the pipeline. This is the default.
Save
Save the pipeline to a file when the service executes.
When the service executes, the contents of the pipeline are saved to a file on webMethods Integration Server. The file is saved as folderName.serviceName.xml in the IntegrationServer_directory\instances\instance_name\pipeline directory. If the file does not exist, the service creates it. If the file already exists, the service overwrites it.
Restore (Override)
Restore the pipeline from a file when the service executes.
When the service executes, the server loads the pipeline file, folderName.serviceName.xml, from the IntegrationServer_directory\instances\instance_name\pipeline directory. The server will throw an exception if the pipeline file does not exist or cannot be found.
Restore (Merge)
Merge the pipeline with one from a file when the service executes.
When this option is selected and the input parameters in the file match the input parameters in the pipeline, the values defined in the file are used in the pipeline. If there are input parameters in the pipeline that are not matched in the file, the input parameters in the pipeline remain in the pipeline.
When the service executes, the server loads the pipeline file, folderName.serviceName.xml, from the IntegrationServer_directory\instances\instance_name\pipeline directory. The server will throw an exception if the pipeline file does not exist or cannot be found.
