Creating a service set

A service set is an ordered list of services. When you run a service set, the manager runs each service in the service set, one at a time, in the specified order. Create a service set to automate the execution of related services.

All services in a service set must be assigned to the same management server and proxy. If necessary, you must reassign the services to different management servers and proxies before you can create a service set that includes those services.

Before you create a service set, ensure that the services that are to be in the service set are tested and stable. Service sets are version-specific. When you run a service set, the manager runs the specific version of each service that was added to the service set. To use a more recent version of a service, you must create another service set that specifies the more recent version of the service.

To create a service set:
  1. Access the manager on the application server.
  2. Click Service Management.
  3. Click Create Service Set.
  4. Use the dialog to select and order the services within the service set. If you want the service set to continue running subsequent services in the service set after a service fails, clear Stop on Failure.
  5. When you have selected all of the services that you want to select for the service set, and the services are in the correct order, click OK
