In this field... | Do the following... | ||
Type | Choose the type of asset that you want to add to the catalog. All top-level asset types are shown in the drop-down list. The asset types that are supported out-of-the-box are: Application, Web service, BPEL Process, XML schema, and Virtual Service). For information about creating and managing virtual services, see Run-Time Governance with CentraSite. | ||
Name | Enter a name for the asset. An asset name can contain any character (including spaces). An asset name does not need to be unique within the catalog. However, to reduce ambiguity, you should avoid giving multiple assets of the same type the same name. As a best practice, we recommend that you adopt appropriate naming conventions to ensure that assets are distinctly named within an organization. | ||
Description | Optional. Enter a comment or descriptive information about the new asset. | ||
Organization | Choose the organization to which the asset will be added. (The drop-down list will contain the list of organizations to which you are permitted to add assets.) If you select an organization other than your own organization, you will nevertheless be the owner of the asset.
| ||
Initial Version | Optional. Enter an identifier for the initial version of the asset. The version identifier does not need to be numeric. You can later create new versions of the asset, Generating New Asset Versions. If the versioning feature is disabled for an asset type, the field is nevertheless displayed, thus allowing you to assign an identifier for this first version. |
