Managing operating environments

You can manage your IBM® Business Process Manager on Cloud environments. You can retrieve and view log files, create a data source to securely connect to relational databases, import certificates to securely connect to service providers, and manage applications.

1. Log in to IBM BPM on Cloud (https://www.bpm.ibmcloud.com).
2. Click Admin > Operating Environment Management.
3. Expand the environment, or environments, that you want to work in.

   Depending on the environment, the following options are available:

   Table 1. Options for managing the operating environment

   Option	Description	Environment
   Log Retrieval	Retrieve logs from specific clusters and specific times, view previously retrieved logs, or delete logs that you retrieved.	Development, Test, Process Runtime
   Live Log Viewer	You can view current log data, live, for the cluster you specify in the development environment and test environment. Click play () to select the cluster to view and begin viewing the current log information.	Development, Test
   Log Levels	Control which events are processed by Java logging.	Development, Test, Process Runtime
   Datasources	Create or manage data sources to connect to an existing relational database.	Development, Test, Process Runtime
   Certificates	Import or manage certificates to provide integrity and encryption of communication with external service providers by using SSL.	Development, Test, Process Runtime
   Failed Events	Reinitiate or discard failed flows.	Development
   Applications	Install and uninstall enterprise applications that you created in IBM Integration Designer. You can also update the current version of an application with an updated version. The installation uses default configuration options. If you need a customized configuration, such as mapping shared libraries or defining custom properties, contact the IBM BPM on Cloud operations team to complete the deployment. After you install an application, you can start and stop it, and see the number of process instances it has in the running, failed, finished, and terminated states. Because an application might have process instances in other states too, use Business Process Choreographer Explorer to see all the process instances belonging to the application.	Development
   Environment Recovery	If the environment becomes unstable, you can restart the server.	Development, Test
