When process templates or human task templates are deployed in a network deployment environment, the following actions are performed automatically when the application is deployed.
The application is deployed in stages. Each stage must complete successfully before the following stage can begin.
  1. The deployment of the application starts on the deployment manager.

    During this stage, the BPEL process templates and human task templates are configured in the WebSphere® configuration repository. The application is also validated. If errors occur, they are reported in the System.out file, in the System.err file, or as FFDC entries on the deployment manager.

  2. The application deployment continues on the node agent.

    During this stage, application is deployed on one application server instance. This application server instance is either part of, or is, the deployment target. If the deployment target is a cluster with multiple cluster members, the server instance is chosen arbitrarily from the cluster members of this cluster. If errors occur during this stage, they are reported in the SystemOut.log file, in the SystemErr.log file, or as FFDC entries on the node agent.

  3. The application runs on the server instance.

    During this stage, the process templates and human templates are deployed to the Business Process Choreographer database on the deployment target. If errors occur, they are reported in the System.out file, in the SystemErr.log file, or as FFDC entries on this server instance.
