Data Services and Resources explain how to create a data service (.dbs file) file manually from scratch. After the .dbs file is created, deploy it to a running Data Services Server instance through the management console as explained below:
- Log in to the management console and select Upload under Data Service menu.
- Select the database backup (.dbs) file and click Upload. For example, you can upload one of the sample data services that are stored in the
<DSS_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/dataservices/samples/folder. - If the file is deployed successfully, the Deployed Services window appears with the new data service listed. From here, you can manage your service. See Managing Data Services.
Alternatively, copy the file to <DSS_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/dataservices folder. It will be deployed instantly as hot deployment, which is enabled in Data Services Server by default.
