Table 4‑39. Properties Tab Settings for Custom Properties
Setting Description
Name Enter the name of a custom property or select an available
custom property from the drop-down menu.
Value Enter or edit a value to associate with the custom property
name.
Encrypted You can choose to encrypt the property value, for example, if the
value is a password.
Overridable You can specify that the property value can be overridden by the
next or subsequent person who uses the property. Typically, this
is another architect, but if you select Show in request, your
business users are able to see and edit property values when
they request catalog items.
Show in Request If you want to display the property name and value to your end
users, you can select to display the property on the request form
when requesting machine provisioning. You must also select
Overridable if you want users to provide a value.
Health Config Tab
Specify a health configuration mode for the blueprint container component in the design canvas.
Table 4‑40. Health Config Tab Settings
Mode setting Description
None Default. No health checks are configured.
HTTP If you select HTTP, you must provide an API to access and an
HTTP method and version to use . The API is relative and you
do not need to enter the address of the container. You can also
specify a timeout period for the operation and set health
thresholds.
For example, a healthy threshold of 2 means that two
consecutive successful calls must occur for the container to be
considered healthy and in the RUNNING status. An unhealthy
threshold of 2 means that two unsuccessful calls must occur for
the container to be considered unhealthy and in the ERROR
status. For all the states in between the healthy and unhealthy
thresholds, the container status is DEGRADED.
TCP connection If you select TCP connection, you must only enter a port for the
container. The health check attempts to establish a TCP
connection with the container on the provided port. You can also
specify a timeout value for the operation and set healthy or
unhealthy thresholds as with HTTP.
Command If you select Command, you must enter a command to be
executed on the container. The success of the health check is
determined by the exit status of the command.
