Scenario: Create a Development and Quality Engineering Catalog Service
As the tenant administrator, you want to create a separate catalog service for your development and quality
engineering group so your other groups, such as nance and human resources, don't see the specialized
catalog items. You create a catalog service called Dev and QE Service to publish all the catalog items
development and engineering need to run their test cases.
Procedure
1 Select Administration > Catalog Management > Services.
2
Click the New icon (
).
3 Enter the name Dev and QE Service in the Name text box.
4 Enter the description Dev and QE application catalog items for test cases in the Description text
box.
5 Select Active from the Status drop-down menu.
6 As the catalog administrator who is creating the service, use the search option to add your name as the
Owner.
7 Add the Support Team custom user group.
For example, add a custom user group that includes the IaaS architects and software architects so that
you and the service catalog users have someone to contact if you encounter problems provisioning the
catalog items.
8 Click OK.
You created and activated a Dev and QE catalog service, but it doesn't contain any catalog items yet.
Scenario: Add CentOS with MySQL to Your Dev and QE Service
As the tenant administrator, you want to add the CentOS with MySQL catalog item to the Dev and QE
service.
Procedure

2 Select the Dev and QE Service row in the Services list and click Manage Catalog Items.
3
Click the New icon ( ).
4 Select CentOS with MySQL.
Only published blueprints and components that are not yet associated with a service appear in the list.
If you do not see the blueprint, verify that it was published or that it is not included in another service.
5 Click OK.
6 Click Close.
You published the CentOS with MySQL catalog item to the Dev and QE service, but until you entitle users
to the item or the service, no one can see or request the item.
