Building a Channel

How to:

After constructing a channel, building a channel is the first stage in channel management. This process compiles all the registered channel components (inlet, route, and outlet) and validates the combination of components you have selected.

Procedure: How to Build a Channel

To build a channel:

  1. In the left console pane of the Registry menu, select Channels.


    The Channels pane opens, as shown in the following image.



    The table that is provided lists each channel that is defined with a brief description.

  2. Select the check box next to the channel you want to build, for example, SampleChannel, and click Build.

    The build result pane for the channel opens, as shown in the following image.



    Each validation step is listed in the table and includes the final build result. If no errors are listed, you have successfully built a channel, which is now ready to be deployed.

    Tip: To build more than one channel at once, you can select multiple check boxes in the Channels pane and click Build.

  3. Click Back to return to the Channels pane.
