Introduction:
After reading the heading the first question that strike is
wooo!!!! why do we need something to deploy DVM to MDS when we have the DVM local
to our SOA project which can be deployed with SAR.
But my dear friends what will happen when you have a same
DVM which can be used across several SOA services. Are you going to create a
copy of the same DVM across all projects ??
The obvious answer will be No.
Here is a Smart solution for all the above :):).
Create a Separate Project :
Create a separate SOA Project (EMPTY) and create structure (in
case you want to create some structure across projects) and copy the DVM inside
as shown in the screenshot below:
Now this DVM can be accessed across every project with the
below simple function:
dvm:lookupValue("oramds:/apps/test/DVM/ConnectionDetails.dvm","code","SupplierName","value","No
Description").
Deployment:
You can have Ant scripts to deploy the project to MDS.
To
use Ant scripts click here
But if you don’t have time for that then here is a simple
solution for that too.
Execute below commands:
1) Cd $SOA_Home/common/bin/wlst.sh
(for linux
environment, Also SOA_HOME is according to your installation).
2) You will
get offline screen. Now you need to execute connect(). You will be asked for the admin username and password.
Once you will get connected you will get
the below message:
Successfully
connected to Admin Server 'AdminServer' that belongs to domain 'my_domain'.
wls:/my_domain/serverConfig>
3) Now execute the command:
importMetadata(application='soa-infra',server='soa_server1',fromLocation='DVM Location with the same structure as
mentioned in docs ',docs='/apps/test/DVM/*.dvm').
e.g.
4) Now open your MDS connection and there you go
with your DVM on MDS :):)
