Creating a local mapping service by using the administrative console

Create a local mapping service to define which service client requests are intercepted.

About this task

You can create a local mapping service by using the administrative console, or by using wsadmin commands as described in Creating a local mapping service by using the command line.

When you create a local mapping service by using the administrative console, you can choose to attach a service map by using the optional "Attach a service map" wizard step, or you can return to a created local mapping service later to attach a service map. If you choose to attach a service map when you create a local mapping service, the properties for the provider service are automatically completed by the wizard. If you choose to attach a service map to a created local mapping service, see Attaching a service map to a local mapping service by using the administrative console.

Procedure

  1. Start the administrative console.
  2. Navigate to Service integration > Service mapping > Local mapping services. The"Local mapping services collection" panel is displayed.
  3. Click New. The "Local mapping services details" panel is displayed.
  4. In the "Specify local mapping service details" step, enter a name for your local mapping service.
    Note: The name cannot contain any spaces.
  5. Optional: Add a description for your local mapping service.
  6. Click Next. The "Attach service map (optional)" step pane is displayed.
  7. Optional: If you want to attach a service map to the local mapping service you are creating, select a service map from the list of installed service maps and click Next. If you do not want to attach a service map to the local mapping service, click Next.
    Note: The default selection of the list of installed service maps is (none). If you click Next without selecting a service map from the list, no service map is attached. You can return to attach a service map to this local mapping service later. For more information see Attaching a service map to a local mapping service by using the administrative console.
  8. In the "Specify intercepted provider details " step, the values for the fields named Service Name, Namespace, and Port Name are filled in automatically if you chose to attach a service map in Step 7. If you have not specified a service map to attach, you must enter values for these fields manually.
    Note: The Endpoint address field must be filled in manually. The Port Type field is optional.
