Chapter 8. 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 KIE 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.

This environment is intended for test and demonstration access. It supports cross-origin resource sharing (CORS). This means that KIE Server endpoints can be accessed using a browser when other resources on the page are provided by other servers. KIE Server endpoints are normally intended for REST calls, but browser access can be needed in some demonstration configurations.

8.1. Deploying a trial environment

The procedure to deploy a trial environment is minimal. There are no required settings and all passwords are set to a single value. The default password is RedHat.

  1. Download the rhpam-7.10.0-openshift-templates.zip product deliverable file from the Software Downloads page of the Red Hat Customer Portal.

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

      oc new-app -f <template-path>/rhpam710-trial-ephemeral.yaml

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

  4. Optional: Set any parameters as described in the template. A typical trial deployment requires only the following parameter:

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

    • In the OpenShift Web UI, click Create.
