Hi


I searched the forum and Googled, but I'm not sure if I even googling the correct thing.


I'm new to K2 and from the training I know to deploy a SmO Service/Service Broker, dll's had to be copied to the Servcie Broker folder. This is fine for training, but aint going to work in our environment.


My question thus. How do a deploy it properly and how do I redeploy when I have made some changes (regards to SmObjects already using the service)?

Hi,


 


The deployment process of customer service is


 


1.      Stop the K2 service


2.      Open "<K2 Instillation Drive>:Program FilesK2 blackpearlServiceBrokerBrokerManagement.exe".


3.      Click on “Configure Services”


4.      Configure Service Type: Right click on services and select “Register New Service Type” and enter values for service name. Select Assembly path from your local path.


5.      Configure Service Instance: right click on just created Service Type and select “Register New Service Instance” to create New Service Instance.


6.      Service Instance Configuration: Press “Save” Button to continue to next step.( this is the configuration section , where you can change the configuration of service ex: Database connection, SharePoint url , log file path etc…)


7.      Enter service instance details and click “Ok” to create service instance.


8.      Restart the K2 service.

I feel custom service deployment is painful approach. hope k2 should come up with simpler approach in future releases
