Publishing a Customized Service Definition

The service designer must publish a customized service definition before a service provisioner can use that definition to create a service request.

Note: Predefined service definitions are already in the Published state.

To publish a service definition, follow these steps:

1. In the task ribbon, select the Service Design workspace icon.
2. In the Ethernet Activator task ribbon, select the Manage Service Definitions task icon.
3. In the Manage Service Definitions screen, select the service definition you want to publish.

   In table view, the State column lists unpublished service definitions. In thumbnail view, the decoration in the top left of the icon indicates the service definitions that are in the unpublished state.

4. Select the unpubsished service definition that you want to publish.
5. In the command panel, select Publish Service Definition.

   The Publish Service Definitions window appears and prompts you to confirm your action.

6. Click Publish.

   The Manage Service Definitions screen reappears. The selected service definition is now in the published state.
