Accessing the application design

In Codar 1.81, the application design is available out-of-the-box. You do not need to import it. This topic explains how to use the out-of-the-box Codar application design. The application design helps in deploying the PetClinic sample application.

  1. Login to the Codar application portal at http://<codarmc.mydomain.com>:8444/csa

  2. Navigate to Designs -> Topology -> Designer.

  3. Click the application version, for example 1.50.00, to configure the components.

  4. Select each of the components and customize by specifying the required values for each of the components.

    The application design has six components:

    • Existing server 1 that can be used as the database server

    • Existing server 2 that can be used as the application server

    • MySQL database

    • Tomcat

    • PetClinic DB Conf - this component creates the database and configures it for the PetClinic application to run

    • PetClinic Application

A database connection relationship is created between PetClinic DB Conf and the PetClinic Application components. The application design deploys the PetClinic application by performing the following steps:

  1. Accesses the IP address of the existing servers

  2. Deploys MySQL and Tomcat on the existing servers

  3. Configures the PetClinic database on MySQL

  4. Deploys the PetClinic application on the Tomcat application server
