Working with the ‘IBM ODM 8.7.1 Standalone Development Environment’ pattern

IBM Operational Decision Manager (ODM) version 8.7.1 ships a set of predefined patterns, as listed here in the Knowledge Center, to enable the ODM environment to run on IBM PureApplication System, IBM PureApplication Software, and IBM PureApplication Service. For convenience, we include the corresponding part numbers, to simplify downloading the pattern through IBM Passport Advantage:

Pattern DescriptionPart Number
IBM Operational Decision Manager Application Pattern V8.7.1 for AIXCN5PXML
IBM Operational Decision Manager Application Pattern V8.7.1 for Red Hat Enterprise LinuxCN5PWML

The ‘IBM ODM 8.7.1 Standalone Development Environment’ pattern deploys a single VM instance that contains both the Decision Center and Decision Server as a standalone development environment. It offers a simple deployment option with minimal resource requirements to set up a sandbox environment quickly and easily.

Unlike the other patterns using the golden topology where the console URLs on the IHS server are provided on the deployed pattern instance for convenience, a user of this standalone development pattern has to enter the links in the browser manually. Below is the list of console URLs, for you reference:

Console DescriptionConsole URL
Rule Execution Server Consolehttps://<standalone_dev_hostname>:9443/res
Hosted Transparent Decision Servicehttps://<standalone_dev_hostname>:9443/DecisionService
Rule Designer Downloadhttps://<standalone_dev_hostname>:9443/ds_resource/odm_designer.zip
Decision Center Enterprise consolehttps://<standalone_dev_hostname>:9443/teamserver
Decision Center Business consolehttps://<standalone_dev_hostname>:9443/decisioncenter
Rule Solution For Office Installer Downloadhttps://<standalone_dev_hostname>:9443/dc_resource/RuleSolutionsForOffice.exe

Note: You could always create a simple Script Package that automatically adds these console URLs to the pattern instance after deployment. For sample, we’ve included a sample script package that implements it using the extendedattributes.json object:

For more details, please refer to this page in the Knowledge Center.

To extend your existing Eclipse IDE with the Rule Designer, download the Eclipse update sites archive for tool (odm_designer.zip) from the link above, and  follow the instructions on ODM Knowledge Center to install it.
