Another way of looking at the lifecycle of an Endpoint is through status or development stages. When first implemented it will be in a Test stage. Once tested it is made Operational. Later, due to bugs or changes in specs or design, it will need to be taken down for Maintenance. Or it may simply be taken off line and made Not Available.
The Business Service Console lets you search for two Endpoint reports based on endpoint status. You may look for those endpoints which are flagged as in a Test stage, and those which are flagged as Operational.
If you are not already in the Browse Taxonomies control, click on the Reports tab on the upper left of the console.
In the left navigation panel, click on or expand the Endpoint Status node.
Clicking this node will load the Browse Taxonomies control with an Endpoints view of all records that have Status specified.
Expanding this node will let you specify the Status state of the records you wish to view. Clicking either the Test or Operational node will load only those records whose status has been set to one of these values.
The specific type of view that loads will depend upon your general user profile. For most users this will be the Default view. You can now Filter the list or change the view with the result view drop down list box in the top right corner of the list.
Simply select the desired view in the View list box. The default view options include Default, Operational and Technical. Other views can be added.
