Undeploying a project tip

Edit online

The tip is the current working version of a project. You can use Workflow Center to undeploy a project tip from the Workflow Center server.

When you undeploy a process app tip, all advanced content artifacts and the associated business-level application (BLA) are removed from the server. However, the process app definition and other artifacts are still in the repository. A BLA is a WebSphere® Application Server configuration artifact that is created only for a snapshot that has advanced content generated in IBM® Integration Designer.

Before you begin

When you use the classic Workflow Center to undeploy a project, it first stops and then undeploys the BLA. In a network deployment environment, make sure that all the node agents are active before you stop a BLA. If a node is inactive, the BLA enters the UNKNOWN state instead of the STOPPED state and fails to stop, although the stop command runs asynchronously and completes without an error. The failure to stop along with the UNKNOWN state prevents you from undeploying the BLA.

About this task

If the process app uses BPEL processes, the associated process instance data is cleaned up from the Business Process Choreographer database before the process app tip is undeployed.

Procedure

  1. From the classic Workflow Center, select the Process Apps, Case Solutions, or Toolkits tab.
  2. Select the appropriate project, and then click Snapshots.
    In the list of snapshots, the tip (named Current, by default) is listed first.
  3. Click Undeploy from the tip menu (the downward arrow icon used to access actions for the tip).
  4. Click OK.

What to do next

To use the project tip, perform a playback in Process Designer or publish the tip from IBM Integration Designer.
