◆ To dump endpoint lists and iterate queue creation:
Implementing Domain Builds and Updates
1. In a dumped archive or file structure, create an iterator over the elements in
ESB\Endpoints\. On each item, examine the file to see if type is QUEUE. For each queue
item, output its destination value to a list.
2. Create an application based on the SonicMQ ConfigBean/CreateQueue sample that
connects to the domain and then adds each listed item as a queue.
Test the Build
Run the services in the test domain. You might want to import the test plans into SonicFS.
When the test run is complete, the Directory Service on the Developer Integration Testing
system can be refreshed to the base level DS structure in preparation for the next build.
After the developer tests are complete, archive export and import techniques are generally
appropriate for advanced staging and production environments.
Using the Update Strategy on Dynamic Target Domains
The following procedure describes how to use the update strategy for complex, evolving
domains such as User Acceptance Testing and the production environment. The dynamic
nature of the configured SonicMQ objects in advanced staging or production makes it
difficult to isolate a Directory Service that produces a base level, yet is cleared of all ESB
elements.
When you import into an existing logical structure, you risk file name conflicts that can
cause new services or existing services to perform in unexpected ways. Further,
incremental changes that are updates of existing deployments might no longer use some
files that should be removed.
The advantage of incremental deployments is that existing services are bound to
management containers so only new elements must adapt to the new domain.
◆ To implement update techniques for a Domain, complete the following tasks:
1. “Build or Export the Set of Changes Moving into Deployment” on page 90
2. “Map Archives for the Target Domain” on page 90
3. “Review Developer Documentation on Setup and Cleanup” on page 90.
4. “Backup the Directory Service” on page 91
