You can set up a UDDI node with your own properties, including
the mandatory node properties. This type of UDDI node is suitable
for production purposes.
About this task
You can set up a customized UDDI node with property values
that you choose. After the node is initialized, you cannot change
the mandatory node properties, for example, the node ID.
Procedure
- Review the information in Databases and production use of the UDDI registry to
decide which database system to use, then create a database schema
to hold the UDDI registry by completing one of the following tasks.
Do not use the default node options where specified.
- Set up a data source for the UDDI
registry application to use to access the database, as described in Creating a data source for the UDDI registry.
- Deploy the UDDI registry application, as
described in Deploying the UDDI registry application.
- Click to display the installed applications.
Start the UDDI registry application by selecting the check box next
to the application name and clicking Start.
Alternatively, if the application server is not already running, start
the application server. This action automatically starts the UDDI
registry application. The UDDI node is now active.
If
you restart the UDDI application or the application server, the UDDI
node always reactivates, even if the node was previously deactivated.
What to do next
Because you chose a user-customized UDDI node, you must
set the properties for the UDDI node by using UDDI administration, and
initialize the node, before it is ready to accept UDDI requests. See Initializing the UDDI registry node for details.
