2.2. Business Central Profile Configuration

Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite 6 (or better) server is capable of starting the Business Central application in three different modes:
  • Full profile - default profile that is active without additional configuration required (UI and remote services e.g. REST).
  • Execution server profile - disables completely UI components of the application and allows only remote access e.g. via REST interface.
  • UI server profile - disables remote services e.g REST and allows only UI access to the application.
To change the profile use the following configuration steps.

Procedure 2.1. Configuring Business Central Profiles

  1. Select the desired web.xml inside $BPMS_HOME/standalone/deployments/business-central.war/WEB-INF/. The following files are provided.
    • web.xml (default) for full profile
    • web-exec-server.xml for execution server profile
    • web-ui-server.xml for UI server profile
  2. To activate a profile other than the default full profile, the web-<PROFILE>.xml file must be renamed to web.xml. The following steps demonstrate one way to enable the execution server profile:
    1. Backup the web.xml file from the full profile 
      $ mv web.xml web-full.xml
    2. Rename the web-exec-server.xml file: 
      $ mv web-exec-server.xml web.xml
  3. Start application server with additional system property to instruct the profile manager to activate given profile.
    • Dorg.kie.active.profile=full - to activate full profile or skip the property completely
    • Dorg.kie.active.profile=exec-server - to activate execution server profile
    • Dorg.kie.active.profile=ui-server - to activate UI server profile
