Creating a Trac-Bug tracking tool on RHEL 5.9 service offering
This topic describes the tasks that you must perform in BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management to create the service offering that the end user can then use to provision the application infrastructure (for example, an OS and an application package). It includes the following topics:
To create the service and the service offering
In the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management Administrator console, you must add a service and a service offering.
For Trac service blueprint, create a service and service offering based on the available deployment model. The Trac Content-Pack supports single-tier service deployment model. In the single tier deployment model, Trac is installed on one instance of a server.
For Trac service blueprint, you can create a service and service offering based on the required deployment model. Trac service blueprint supports the following service deployment models:
Deployment model | Description |
---|---|
Single-tier | In the single-tier deployment model, Trac will be installed on a single instance of a server along with Apache, Subversion and MySQL. |
Multi-tier | In the multi-tier deployment model, Trac will be installed on a single instance of a server along with Apache, Subversion and MySQL will be installed on another instance of a server. |
To create a service
- From the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management Administration Console, click the vertical Workspaces menu on the left side of the window, and click Service Catalog.
- In the Service Catalog, click Create a New Service.
- Enter the service name.
- For Type, select a service type.
- Business service — Services that customers use and that show the customer view of services, such as email or an online store.

Note
After you select the type and save the service, you cannot change the type.
- Enter a description of the service.
- Do one of the following actions:
- To create the service offering, click Apply.
- To create the service offering later, click Save to save your selections and close the window.
To create a service offering
- From the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management Administration Console, click the vertical Workspaces menu on the left side of the window, and click Service Catalog.
- From the Service Catalog, edit or create a service.

To make the provisioning request
- Access Workspaces > Service Instances to display the Service Instances workspace, and click New Service Request.
In the New Service Request dialog box, click the server provisioning service you want to display the Submit Request dialog box.To complete the Service Request for Trac-Bug tracking tool, specify the following Parameters:
Parameters Description tracproject Trac Project Name tracadmin Trac Admin User tracdb Trac Database Name mysqlrootpass MySQL root user password mysqlport MySQL User Defined Port httppass Password Authentication for Trac Admin User dbserver Database Server in case Mutitier, IP address will be automatically chosen while installation - Enter the data in the required fields to complete the request for an instance of the service request. You can click Next to review the details.
- Enter the data in the required fields to complete the request for an instance of the service request. You can click Next to review the details.
- Click Submit. The request is added to the Pending Activity list in the Service Instances window.
