components. It is also annotated with @Service to denote this component should be published so it
is consumed by other components.
As mentioned above, don’t write explicit code to publish or consume services. Thus, SwitchService
is ready to be published when the application is installed into the HP VAN SDN Controller.
Verifying Published Services Using Virgo Admin Console
In order to verify our service is actually published we may use the Virgo Admin Console (This
console may be also used to uninstall applications). First build and install the application as
described in Building the Application and Installing the Application sections.
NOTE
The following information describes the process using two different versions of Virgo [8] container. The
latest
HP VAN SDN Controller was upgraded to use the newer version; however this information
describes the way of verifying published services using a
n older version because unfortunately Virgo
dropped the “Published Services”
information in the new version and now it is not possible to see
published services unless they are already consumed. Thus the old version is illustrated as a good
reference.
