The Lifecycle Management interface in Shared Services Console enables you to view, search, migrate, load, export, and import artifacts. The artifacts are sorted into categories so that they are exposed in an organized manner.
The tabular Lifecycle Management interface enables you to view multiple applications.
Note: | Artifacts vary by product. For a detailed list of product artifacts and categories, see the appendixes at the end of this guide. |
To view artifacts in Shared Services Console:
Launch Shared Services Console. See Launching Shared Services Console.
Expand the Application Groups node in the View pane to view application groups.
Expand an application group to view applications.
Note:
The Foundation application group contains Foundation applications such as Shared Services and Performance Management Architect. The File System node reads the default Shared Services file system location (where files are loaded and extracted). To change the default Shared Services file system location, edit the migration properties. See Editing Migration Properties.
Click an application to view the artifact listing (or right-click the application and select Explore).
An Artifact List tab displays the artifact listing.
Above the artifact listing, these view options are displayed:
Artifact List—Displays application and repository artifacts
A new tab displays for each Application Group. After a migration completes, the tabs close.
Selected Artifacts—Displays all previously selected artifacts on one tab
The Lifecycle Management interface remembers the artifacts that you have selected as you move between the applications and application groups. This functionality is useful when defining an application migration consisting of multiple products.
Search Artifacts—Displays artifact search options. See Searching Artifacts.
