3.3.2 Evaluating the items to be considered when services are added

After you have decided the service template to be used, you evaluate the service names and category names, resource groups, and properties that are to be associated with the services as the items to be specified when services are added.

The following provides an overview of items that you must specify.

• Service names

  Evaluate appropriate names for the services, based on their usage and operation.

• Category name

  Evaluate classifying the services by category according to their usage and operation. Examples of categories for classifying services include target devices and execution timings.

  You can facilitate management of services by classifying them into appropriate categories.

• Resource group

  Evaluate assigning resource groups to the services based on the items evaluated in the operation design.

  If you assign a resource group to a service, only the users who have the role for that resource group can manage and run that service.

  If you do not create and use user-specific resource groups, use the built-in resource group (All Resources).

• Properties

  The properties depend on the service template. Check the service template that you will be using, and then evaluate the property values to be specified. For details about the properties of service templates provided by JP1/AO, see the descriptions of the properties of individual service templates in the manual Job Management Partner 1/Automatic Operation Service Template Reference.

  If there is no need to change property values each time a service is run, evaluate specifying those properties when you add the service. If there are properties that will be shared among multiple services, evaluate defining them as shared service properties.

  Some service templates display the properties specified by means of window operations when the service was added (or edited) so that you can change (overwrite) the property values when you run the service.
