Create monitor model versions for non-versioned applications

If you have an existing monitor model that monitors an existing non-versioned business process and application, you can create a version of the business process and application and then create a version of the monitor model to monitor the versioned application.

Before you complete the instructions in this topic, your workspace must contain the following artifacts:

• An existing non-versioned application that contains a non-versioned business process.

• An existing business monitoring project that contains a monitor model for monitoring the application.

To create a monitor model version for a non-versioned application.

Procedure

1. In IBM Integration Designer, switch to the Business Integration perspective.

2. Create a version of both your business process and the application that contains it. Information about creating versions of business processes and applications is found in the IBM Integration Designer topic "Versioning business processes."

3. In IBM Integration Designer, switch to the Business Monitoring perspective.

4. In the Business Monitoring view, right-click the monitor model used to monitor your original non-versioned application and then select New Monitor Model Version. The New Monitor Model Version wizard opens.

5. Complete one of the following steps:

   • If you want to create the version of the monitor model in a new business monitoring project, ensure that the New business monitoring project check box is selected and then either accept the default name for the new business monitoring project or type in a different name for the project.

   • If you want to create the version of the monitor model in the existing business monitoring project where the monitor model resides, clear the New business monitoring project check box.

6. In the New time stamp field, accept the default time stamp for the new version of the monitor model or click Edit to change the time stamp to a different value. The new time stamp is used to differentiate the new monitor model version from the existing monitor model.

7. Click Next. The Specify the New Versions of the Applications page opens. The page displays the name of the existing application that is monitored by the monitor model.

   If the monitor model has dependencies on other existing applications, the names of these applications are also displayed.

8. In the New Version of the Application column, select the versioned applications that correspond to the existing applications that are listed in the Existing Application column. This selection configures the new version of the monitor model to monitor the new versioned applications. (If you have special monitoring requirements, you can select existing applications rather than versioned applications for the new monitor model version to monitor.)

   If there are libraries that are referenced by the existing monitor model, new versions of the libraries are automatically created for the new monitor model version and the library names are based on the project references and namespaces of the files referenced in the libraries.

9. Click Next. The Synchronize Monitor Model wizard opens. In the Application Change column, the versioned business process displays the changed validFrom time stamp.

10. Click Finish to create the monitor model version in the selected business monitoring project.

11. In the Business Monitoring view, right-click the new monitor model version and select Generate Monitor Java EE Projects. The Generate Monitor Java EE Projects window opens.

12. Accept or modify the default project names and then click Finish. The new monitor model application is generated. When the application is deployed to the IBM Business Monitor server, the new version of the monitor model runs in the application.

    You can have multiple versions of a monitor model deployed and running on the server at the same time.
