Chapter 3. Deploying a trial environment

You can deploy a trial (evaluation) Red Hat Process Automation Manager environment. It consists of Business Central for authoring or managing services and Process Server for test execution of services.

This environment does not include permanent storage. Assets that you create or modify in a trial environment are not saved.

The procedure is minimal. There are no required settings and all passwords are set to a single value (the default password is RedHat).

To deploy a single authoring environment, use the rhpam71-trial-ephemeral.yaml template file. You can extract this file from the rhpam-7.1.0-openshift-templates.zip product deliverable file. You can download the file from the Software Downloads page.

Procedure

  1. Use one of the following methods to deploy the template:

    • In the OpenShift Web UI, select Add to Project → Import YAML / JSON and then select or paste the rhpam71-trial-ephemeral.yaml file. In the Add Template window, ensure Process the template is selected and click Continue.

    • To use the OpenShift command line console, prepare the following command line: 

      oc new-app -f <template-path>/rhpam71-trial-ephemeral.yaml

      In this command line, replace <template-path> with the path to the downloaded template file.

  2. Optionally, set any parameters as described in the template. However, a typical trial deployment does not require any parameters.

  3. Complete the creation of the environment, depending on the method that you are using:

    • In the OpenShift Web UI, click Create.
    • Complete and run the command line.
