Service Lifecycle Model
The Service Lifecycle model defines the following states and transitions:
State | Has valid transitions to... |
Proposed | In Design, Rejected, Retired |
In Design | In Development, Rejected |
In Development | Implemented |
Implemented | In Test |
In Test | Tested, In Development |
Tested | In Production |
In Production | Under Maintenance, Deprecated |
Under Maintenance | In Production |
Deprecated | In Production, Retired |
Retired | This is an end state. It has no outgoing transitions. |
Rejected | This is an end state. It has no outgoing transitions. |
Certain operations performed in ARIS trigger policies in CentraSite, and these policies change the lifecycle state of a given Service object. When a user deletes a service in ARIS, a policy in CentraSite automatically switches that process to the Retired state in the registry.
When you install
CentraSite, this predefined lifecycle model is disabled (i.e., inactive). To use
CentraSite with ARIS, you must activate the lifecycle model, as described in
Activating the Lifecycle Models and
Design/Change-Time Policies That ARIS Uses.
