Performs environment specific property replacement, compiles an SCA artifact for the composite, determines next composite revision and deploys the SCA artifact to the server.

Environment/Instance Properties

Property Name	Required	Description
FDSOA_SERVER_HOST	Yes	Host name of the SOA managed server.
FDSOA_SERVER_PORT	Yes	Port number of the SOA managed server.
FDWLS_ADMIN_USER	Yes	Admin user name for WebLogic server.
FDWLS_ADMIN_PASSWORD	Yes	FDWLS_ADMIN_USER password for WebLogic server.
FDMDS_USERID	Yes	User name for MDS access.
FDMDS_PASSWORD	Yes	Password for FDMDS_USERID.
FDMDS_JDBCURL	Yes	Database URL for MDS access.
FD_ORACLE_SOA_HOME	Yes	Oracle SOA Home, indicates where SOA Suite is installed.
FDSOA_EXT_CLASSPATH	No	Ability to extend the plugin classpath for external java classes or custom xpath functions
FDSOA_DEPLOY_CFG_PLAN	No	Ability to define config plan specific to a composite (see special considerations).

Project Properties

Property Name	Required	Description
FDSOA_COMPOSITE_NAME	Yes	Name of composite that is being deployed.
FDSOA_PARTITION	Yes	Name of the partition to hold the composite on the server.
FDSOA_OVERWRITE_REVISION	Yes	Flag to indicate if the composite revision on the server should be overwritten or a new revision created (see special considerations).
FDSOA_MAKE_DEFAULT_REVISION	Yes	Flag to indicate if the deployed composite should be marked as the default revision.

Inputs

Input Name	Required	Description
FDSOA_INP_DEPLOY_CFG_PLAN	No	Deployment config plan that is to be used for the composite. Takes a Wildcard expression or filename. Can be a relative or absolute path (see special considerations).
FDSOA_INP_REVISION	No	Provide the composite revision, this input will override the FDSOA_OVERWRITE_REVISION project property (see special considerations).

Outputs

Output Name	Required	Description
FDSOA_DEPLOYED_REVISION	Yes	Revision of the composite for this deployment.
FDSOA_LAST_DFLT_REVISION	Yes	Revision of the composite for the previous default revision.

Artifacts

This operation consumes an SCA composite jar from the artifacts repository.

Endpoint Selection

This operation will select all available endpoints associated to the environment/instance.

Endpoint Execution

This operation will execute on any one of the selected endpoints and will be random in the determination of which one.

Special Considerations

Utilize the FDSOA_EXT_CLASSPATH environment variable to extend the plugin classpath to allow the compile to succeed with custom java classes or xpath functions.

Composite Revisions

The revision for a composite is calculated unless either FDSOA_INP_REVISION (plugin input) is used or FDSOA_OVERWRITE_REVISION (project property) is checked. The input will override all revision logic and use the value that is passed in. If the input is empty and the project property is unchecked, then the plugin will determine the largest revision on the server and increment the revision before deploying. The revision format is N.nn[.nn][.nn] with an initial value of 1.0, with

N – initial segment that will increment with no limitation

nn – 0 through 99, when segment hits 100 it rolls to the next higher segment

Current revision Next revision

1.0 1.01

1.99 2.00

1.0.0 1.0.01

1.0.99 1.01.00

Configuration Plans

The configuration plans that were saved to the ./artifacts/configPlans will be copied to the ./temp directory. Configuring the FDSOA_INP_DEPLOY_CFG_PLAN input can be either an absolute path to a global configuration plan or a relative path to one of the copied configuration plans based on the ./temp directory.

Configuring the FDSOA_DEPLOY_CFG_PLAN project property will require that the FDSOA_INP_DEPLOY_CFG_PLAN input is not set. The input will take precedence over the project property.
