Setting up a default UDDI node

Use this task to create a UDDI node with predetermined property values. You will not be able to change the mandatory node properties, such as node ID, either during the creation of the node or afterwards. Such a node is suitable for initial evaluation of the UDDI Registry and for development and test purposes. If you want to choose the mandatory node properties yourself, set up a customized node as detailed in Setting up a customized UDDI node.

Note: If you are deploying the UDDI Registry application into a cluster, and you want to use Cloudscape for your database, use the network version of Cloudscape. Embedded Cloudscape is not supported for cluster configurations.

Create a database schema to hold the UDDI Registry by completing one of the following tasks, ensuring that you use the default node options where specified:
Note: If you are creating the UDDI node in a cluster, it is assumed that a single database will be used for all members of the cluster.
Set up a datasource for the UDDI Registry application to use to access the database, as described in Creating a datasource for the UDDI Registry.
Deploy the UDDI Registry application, as described in Deploying the UDDI Registry application.
If you are using DB2, stop the server if it is running. Edit the user profile for the DB2 user that will start the node agent or server. Modify the user profile to run the db2profile script which is located in the root directory of the DB2 userid (for example /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile). Alternatively you can run the db2profile script manually by entering the following command, however you will need to do this every time you restart the node agent or server :
```
. /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile
```
Note: In the above example, notice that the '.' is followed by a single space character.
Click
Applications > Enterprise Applications to display the installed applications. Start the UDDI Registry application by selecting the check box next to it and clicking Start . Alternatively start the application server if it is not already running; this will automatically start the UDDI Registry application. The UDDI node is now active.
Note: Restarting the UDDI application, or the application server, will always result in the reactivation of the UDDI node, even if the node was previously deactivated.

What to do next

As you have chosen to use a default UDDI node, the node will be initialized when the UDDI application is started for the first time. Follow the instructions in Using the UDDI Registry Installation Verification Program (IVP) to verify that you have successfully set up the UDDI node.
