4.1 Adding services

This section describes how to add service templates that have been added to JP1/AO to the list of services (Services) in the Services window. After adding a service to the Services, you can then submit the service for execution.

Tip

You can add more than one service from the same service template.

Who can perform this task:

Users in the Admin role, Develop role, or Modify role

To add a service:

1. In the Services window, click the Add Service button.

   Tip

   Alternatively, click Add Service in the Actions menu.

2. In the list of service templates in the Add Service dialog box, click the service template you want to add.

3. In the Service Name text box, enter the service name.

   Set a service name that is unique within the resource group.

4. In the Description text box, enter a description of the service.

5. In the Category text box, enter the category name.

   Specify a maximum of 256 characters, but do not specify control characters (\u0000 to \u001F and \u007F to \u009F).

   You can enter categories as a hierarchy by separating them with forward slashes (/). The maximum of hierarchical levels you can specify is 10. You must specify a value for each hierarchical level.

   To assign multiple categories to the service, separate the category names with commas. However, you cannot specify the same category more than once. Also, you must specify values for each category.

   You cannot precede or follow the hierarchy with a forward slash. Also, do not use commas, back slashes, and forward slashes in a category name.

6. Check the value in the Resource Group for Service list box, and select a resource group if you want to change the value.

   Initially, the list box displays the resource group to which the user belongs.

7. Click the Add Service button.

8. In the Information dialog box, click the OK button.

9. In the Service Definition dialog box, check the service information and enter the required values in the service properties.

   The properties you are required to enter depend on the service template.

   If the Preset Properties list box appears, you can apply a set of property values appropriate for the user environment and mode of operation by selecting a name from the list and clicking the Apply button.

10. Click the OK button.

11. In the Information dialog box, click the OK button.

The service is added to the list of services in the Services window.
