Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.

Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |

Create and deploy a new instance
You can create and deploy a new service instance from a service design. For more information about sequenced designs, see Sequenced Designs.
- In the Deployments area, click Deploy a New Instance. The dialog appears. Enter the following general information:
- Deployment Name — Enter a deployment name. The service instance created from this action will have the same name as the deployment.
- Description (optional) — Enter a description of the deployment.
- Resource Environment Filter — From the list, select one or more resource environments to use for provisioning. For more information, see Resource offerings for sequenced designs.
- Enter properties for the new instance:
- The design associated with the instance appears on the canvas. Select a service component from the design, and modify the properties as needed. For more information, see Service components.
- You can change the properties of multiple components in the design. The message icon appears next to modified components in the design. Click on the icon for details about what changes were made.
- Click Deploy.
Run a user operation from a component in a deployment
You can run a user operation on a component in an active deployment.
- Navigate to a deployed instance in a service design.
- Click on the Topology tab, and select a component from the canvas or the list on the right panel.
- From the bottom of the right panel, click Actions, and use the list to select a user operation to run.
- A list of the properties for the user operation appears. Modify the properties or accept the defaults, and click Execute Action. You can execute another user operation when the first one completes.
See User operations for service components for information on how to create a user operation.
Cancel a deployment
To cancel a deployment, click the gear icon to the right of the deployment you want to cancel, and select Cancel Deployment. Click Yes to confirm the cancellation.
A canceled deployment is moved to Offline state.
Delete a deployment
When you delete a deployment, it is removed from the list on the Deployments tab, and all of its references are marked internally as being in Retired state. Once in a Retired state, a deployment can be deleted permanently from the database using the purge tool. For more information about purge tool usage, see the Cloud Service Automation Configuration Guide.
To delete a deployment, click the gear icon to the right of the deployment in Offline state that you want to delete, and select Delete Deployment. Click Yes to confirm the deletion.
