Deploying a BPEL process

Follow the instructions below to deploy a business process.

1. Log on to the product's management console and select "Processes -> Add" under the "Main" menu.
   
2. The "New BPEL Package" window opens. Provide the file and click "Upload."
   
3. If the deployment is successful, a dialog box  appears as follows.
   
4. The "Deployed Processes" page opens with the newly-added process listed. For example,
   
   • Package Name:   The name of the package containing at least the deployment descriptor and one or more process definitions (BPEL), WSDL and XSDs.
   • Process ID:
   • Version: If a package with an existing name is uploaded, the processes in the package will be versioned. All old processes in the package will be retired and new version deployed. Since there is only package-level versioning available, the new package should include all the processes defined in the old package, even though you may only need to update a single process in that package.
     
   • Status: Status of the process. Can be either "Active" or "Retired".
     
   • Deployed Date: Date and time of the package deployment.
     
   • Manage: A newly-created process has status as "Active", which can be retired by clicking on the "Retire" link. Once a process is retired, a new instance of it cannot be created.
5. Click the "Process ID" to access its information dashboard. For example,
   
   It typically contains the following sections:
   • Process Details
   • Instance Summary
   • Quality of Service Configuration
   • WSDL Details
   • Process Definition
   • Process Visualization
