Installing Content Capsule

Content capsule can be consumed and deployed in two distinct ways:

Using Content Store

Go to Content Store tile from the Cloud Service Management Console as an administrator. After configuring the access to public HPE Live Network content store, you can browse, search, filter and deploy the content capsules automatically. See CSA Administrative Guide from HPE Software Support for more information.

Using the Capsule Installer

Download the latest Capsule Installer (Installer and Content Installer Guide) from https://marketplace.saas.hpe.com/itom/content/hpe-csa-content-capsule-installer.

To install contents, run the CSA Cloud Content Installer manually in GUI mode or Silent mode. See Content Installation Guide for details.

To verify if the Capsule Installer downloaded from ITOM MarketPlace is the latest available version, perform one of the following steps:

  • Execute the installer from the command line with the -version as input. If the installer fails to handle this command-line argument flag properly, then the version you have downloaded is not the latest.
  • View the title bar for the installer to display the current version of the installer.
  • Open the help screen with -? or -h or -help for available options to be executed using this installer.

After installing and verifying the installer, continue with the configuration steps in this document.

Configuring Contents

When importing contents,  CSA Installer and Content Capsule Installer automatically install the required OO workflows and service designs. After importing the contents, log on to Cloud Service Management Console and configure service offerings as required.

Note CloudSlang Content

By default, the OO Designer will not have all the CloudSlang base content packs imported. You must import these base content packs from <CSA_HOME>\oo\csContentPack.

For more information on how to use CloudSlang based content pack, see OO Designer Guide 1.0.

To create CloudSlang based component, follow the same procedure that is used for creating a component from OO flow.

Subscribing Service

After logging on to the CSA Marketplace Portal, you can subscribe to the service offerings. If you have configured multiple organizations in CSA or published your service to a catalog other than the Global Shared Catalog, log on to the appropriate Marketplace Portal for your organization.
