Chapter 9. Deploying the MortgageApprovalProcess process application
The following chapter instructs you how to build and deploy a new instance of the Mortgage_Process application in Red Hat Process Automation Manager.
Prerequisites
The Process Server is deployed and connected to the Business Central.
Procedure
-
In Business Central, go to Menu
Design Projects Mortgage_Process. Click Deploy.
- If no KIE container (deployment unit) is included with the project name, a container with default values is automatically created.
If an older version of the project is already deployed, go to the project settings and change the project version. When finished, save the change and click Deploy. This deploys a new version of the same project with the latest changes in place, alongside the older version(s).
NoteYou can also select the Build & Install option to build the project and publish the KJAR file to the configured Maven repository without deploying to a Process Server. In a development environment, you can click Deploy to deploy the built KJAR file to a Process Server without stopping any running instances (if applicable), or click Redeploy to deploy the built KJAR file and stop any running instances. The next time you deploy or redeploy the built KJAR, the previous deployment unit (KIE container) is automatically updated in the same target Process Server. In a production environment, the Redeploy option is disabled and you can click Deploy only to deploy the built KJAR file to a new deployment unit (KIE container) on a Process Server.
To configure the Process Server environment mode, set the
org.kie.server.mode
system property toorg.kie.server.mode=development
ororg.kie.server.mode=production
. To configure the deployment behavior for a corresponding project in Business Central, go to project SettingsGeneral Settings Version and toggle the Development Mode option. By default, Process Server and all new projects in Business Central are in development mode. You cannot deploy a project with Development Mode turned on or with a manually added SNAPSHOT
version suffix to a Process Server that is in production mode.

To verify the deployment, click Menu
Manage Process Definitions, and click . - Click on the three vertical dots in the Actions column and select Start to start a new instance of the process.
