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: 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
