You can view the state of a module that you have added to a test environment server, or the state of a server that is connected to your workspace, using the Servers view.

About this task

In IBM® Integration Designer, you can deploy your modules to one or more servers in the test environment. The Servers view displays a list of all your servers and projects that are associated with that server. A project displays under a server when a project from the workbench is added to the server. You can use the Servers view to determine the current status and state of the server; and the projects and modules added to the server, including process applications or toolkits that contain the modules.

Procedure

  1. In the Business Integration perspective, click the Servers tab to open the Servers view.
  2. The Servers view shows each IBM Workflow Server or Workflow Center Server that is connected to your workspace. The Servers view also displays the current state of all connected servers.
    Information about the state and status of the server is displayed next to the server name.
    • Server state
      The following table lists the possible states of the server:
      Table 1. Description of the server states
      Server state Description
      Starting A connection to the server is being established, or the actual server is starting.
      Started The server is started. Both the workspace and the server are ready to run applications on the server.
      Stopping The server is stopping. The workspace is in the process of connecting to the server and is ending the process on the server.
      Stopped The server is in a stopped state, or a connection cannot be established between your workspace and the server.
    • Server status
      The following table lists the possible server status:
      Table 2. Description of the server status
      Server status Description
      Synchronized All the modules in the workspace have been published to the server. The server and the applications are in sync.
      Publishing Changes to the modules in the workspace are being published to the server. Files related to the modules are in the correct location for the server to find and use them.
      Republish At least one module in the workspace has changed. The module needs to be published to the server.
  3. The Servers view also displays the state and status of modules. The modules are shown in a hierarchical tree view. If the modules are part of a process application or toolkit, the modules are displayed under the name of the process application or toolkit.
    Information about the state and status of a module is displayed next to the module name.
    • Module state
      The following table lists the possible states of a module:
      Table 3. Description of the module states
      Module state Description
      Started The module is started on the server, and is ready to run.
      Stopped The module is stopped on the server, and cannot run.
    • Module status
      The following table lists the possible module status:
      Table 4. Description of the module status
      Module status Description
      Synchronized The module has been published to the server. There are no pending changes to the module.
      Republish The module has changes which need to be published to the server. The server needs to be updated.
  4. The Servers view also displays the status and version of a process application or toolkit that contains modules in your workspace.
    Information about status and version is displayed next to the process application or toolkit name.
    • Process application or toolkit state
      Table 5. Description of the process application or toolkit states
      Module state Description
      Started All modules in the process application or toolkit have started.
      Stopped Some or all of the modules in the process application or toolkit are stopped on the server, and cannot run.
    • Process application or toolkit status
      The following table lists the possible status:
      Table 6. Description of the process application or toolkit status
      Module status Description
      Synchronized All modules contained in the process application or toolkit have been published to the server. There are no pending changes.
      Republish At least one module contained in the process application or toolkit has changes which need to be published to the server. The server needs to be updated.
