Importing an Environment Configuration.
To add an environment
1. In My webMethods: Navigate > Applications > Administration > System-Wide > Environments > Define Environments.
The Define Environments page displays a list of defined environments and their configuration and deployment statuses. If environments have not been defined, the Environments list is empty.
2. Click Add Environment to activate the Environment Information panel and begin defining a new environment.
3. On the Environment Information panel, type a name for the environment.
You might want to choose a name that reflects the environment functionality, such as “development” or “production”, or choose a name that reflects the applicable process, such as “quote to collect”.
4. In the Description field, enter a description for the environment.
5. Click Save.
The newly created environment appears in the Environments list.
6. To configure the environment, click the environment name or click the Edit icon (
