Chapter 9. Creating Containers

Containers are self-contained environments that have been provisioned to hold instances of your packaged and deployed rule instances.

Prerequisite

Once the Decision Server is registered, you can start adding containers.

Procedure

  1. Log in to Decision Central.
  2. In the main menu, click Menu Deploy Execution Servers.
  3. Click SERVER TEMPLATES + New Server Template.
  4. In the New Server Template window, click Container.

  5. Enter the Group Name, Artifact Id, and Version manually.

    Alternatively, enter the name of your container and search for the project you want to deploy in the container.

  6. Click Select next to the project to automatically enter the details of the project.

    Warning

    When entering the container’s version number, do not use the LATEST or RELEASE keywords. This feature has been deprecated and can cause deployment issues.

  7. To deploy the container automatically, select the Start Container? box.
  8. Click Finish.

After the container is successfully created, select the container from the list and click Start at the upper right hand corner to start it

To verify that the container is running, send a [GET] request to the endpoint.
