Set up a default UDDI node

We can create a UDDI node with predetermined property values. This UDDI node is suitable for initial evaluation of the UDDI registry and for development and test purposes.

When you set up a default UDDI node, the mandatory node properties, such as node ID, are set automatically and we cannot change them. We can create a default UDDI node with an embedded Apache Derby database but a different data source, or with a database other than Apache Derby.

To set up a UDDI node with our own properties, including the mandatory node properties, set up a customized node. See Set up a customized UDDI node.

1. Create a database schema to hold the UDDI registry by completing one of the following tasks, ensuring that we use the default node options where specified:
   • Create a DB2 distributed database for the UDDI registry
   • Create a DB2 for z/OS database for the UDDI registry
   • Create an Apache Derby database for the UDDI registry
   • Create a Microsoft SQL Server database for the UDDI registry
   • Create an Oracle database for the UDDI registry

2. Set up a data source for the UDDI registry application to use to access the database, as described in Create a data source for the UDDI registry.
3. Deploy the UDDI registry application, as described in Deploy the UDDI registry application.

   Optional: For a DB2 database, stop the server if it is running. Edit the user profile for the DB2 user that starts the server. Modify the user profile to run the db2profile script, located in the root directory of the DB2 user ID (for example, /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile). Alternatively, we can run the db2profile script manually, but you must do this every time that you restart the server. Enter the following command (there is a single space character after the period in this command):

   . /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile

4. Click Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications to display the installed applications. Start the UDDI registry application by selecting the check box next to the application name and clicking Start. Alternatively, if the application server is not already running, start the application server. This action automatically starts the UDDI registry application. The UDDI node is now active.

   If we restart the UDDI application or the application server, the UDDI node always reactivates, even if the node was previously deactivated.

5. Click UDDI > UDDI Nodes > UDDI_node_id to display the properties page for the UDDI registry node. Set Prefix for generated discoveryURLs to a valid URL for the configuration. The URL prefix that is applied to generated discovery URLs used by the HTTP GET service for UDDI v2.

Because you chose to use a default UDDI node, the node is initialized when the UDDI application is started for the first time. Follow the instructions in Use the UDDI registry installation verification test (IVT) to verify that we have successfully set up the UDDI node.

Subtopics

• Create a DB2 distributed database for the UDDI registry
  Complete this task to use DB2 on the Windows, Linux, or UNIX operating systems as the database store for the UDDI registry data.
• Create a DB2 for z/OS database for the UDDI registry
  Complete this task to use DB2 for z/OS as the database store for the UDDI registry data.
• Create an Apache Derby database for the UDDI registry
  Complete this task to use an Apache Derby database as the database store for the UDDI registry. We can use an embedded or network Apache Derby database, and the database store can be local or remote.
• Create a Microsoft SQL Server database for the UDDI registry
  Complete this task to use Microsoft SQL Server 2005, 2008 or 2008 R2 as the database store for the UDDI registry data.
• Create an Oracle database for the UDDI registry
  Complete this task to use Oracle as the database store for the UDDI registry data.
• Create a data source for the UDDI registry
  We create a data source so the UDDI registry can use it to access the UDDI database.
• Deploy the UDDI registry application
  You deploy a UDDI registry application as part of setting up a UDDI node. We can use a supplied script, the dmgr console, or wsadmin scripting commands.
