24 Packaging and Deploying Orchestration Cartridges

The following procedure describes the steps required to package an Oracle Communications Order and Service Management (OSM) orchestration cartridge and deploy it to the run-time environment:

  1. Package the cartridge.

    Before you can deploy to the OSM run-time environment, you must determine which entities, libraries, and resources to include in the cartridge PAR file. See "Packaging Order and Service Management Cartridges" for more information.

  2. From the Oracle Communications Design Studio main menu, select Studio, then Show Environment Perspective.

    An Environment perspective is a collection of views that enable you to create and manage the attributes associated with your environment. These attributes are organized within an Environment project. You must create at least one Environment project. See "Creating Environment Projects" for more information.

  3. Select the Design Studio environment to which you want to connect.

    Design Studio environments contain the specific OSM server connection information. You must create at least one Design Studio environment. See "Working with Environment Projects" for more information.

  4. Deploy the cartridge.

    See "Packaging and Deploying OSM Cartridges" for more information.

    Note:

    You can also use the Optimized Deploy feature to deploy cartridges to a run-time environment. See "Deploying Cartridge Projects with Optimize Deploy" for more information.
  5. Test the cartridge model.

    See "Testing OSM Cartridge Models" for more information.
