Hi, We have recently completed service mapping for some of the applications. How can I make sure its aligned and visible  with its respective  Business application under the Business Application page

Hi,

You should be able to see this inside the Business Application (the CI Relations Formatter below the main form has a Dependency Views button that will open the map from the perspective of the current CI). Alternatively you can see relations below the main part of the form in a non-graphical form. I have attached the screenshot of a Business App available in your PDI (I just hooked it up to a random App Service).

 

This is also available in the EA Workspace.

 

I hope this helps!

Hi @VidyanathCh 

As per the CSDM standard, You should connect a Business Application to its deployed Application Services via a Consumes::Consumed by CI Relationship.

 

I hope this helps!

Hi Mathew, Thanks for the update. Is there any document reference to perform this action? I tried to set this up using CI Relationship Editor but the XANADU update do not have the  CI Relationship Editor.

I tried to set up this relationship using the Application Services csdm_view (csdm_app_services_list.do). Where I can validate this relationship and able to see this relationship? Is it at the Business Application level or the Application service level?

Hi,

The Application Services csdm_view, when you attempt to edit an Application Service should take you to the App Service Wizard. The first page, if you scroll down, enables you to add all related CSDM relationships - Business Apps, Service Offerings and parent-child App Services.

 

The other location is from the CI form (e.g. Business App) if you have the CI Relations Formatter on the form. From here you should be able to add a relationship to the Application Service. You will need to select the correct relationship type.

 

Both options are still available in Xanadu.

 

I hope this helps!
