Only one resource offering is allowed for bootstrapping; by default, this offering contains information regarding the Discovery Service. If a resource offering is already defined, you can modify the attributes by clicking on its name. You may also check the box next to the name and delete the existing resource offering. To configure a new resource offering, you would then click New.
This attribute takes as a value a URI that defines the type of service the resource offering implements. For example, urn:liberty:disco:2003-08.
Note – It is recommended that this URI be the same as the targetNamespace URI of the abstract WSDL description for the service.
This attribute takes as a value a URI of the provider of the service instance. For example, http://daiquiri.sun.com:80/amserver/Liberty/disco.
This attribute defines a running web service at a distinct protocol endpoint. Information about service instances needs to be communicated in various contexts. For example, the Discovery Service defined in this specification is an identity service which provides an enumeration of resource offerings (each of which includes a service instance description). See To Configure a Service Description.
Check this box if the service has no options available for the resource offering. Options provide hints to a potential requester whether certain data or operations may be available with a particular resource offering. For example, an option may be provided stating that home contact information is available.
This attribute contains a list of options for the service instance. The option is defined as a URI. The set of possible URIs are generally standardized by the service type.
All Supported Directives may contain a descriptive reference. If the ID Refs attribute is not enabled for a directive, the directive is taken to apply to all authentication mechanisms provided in the resource offering. If the ID Refs attribute is enabled for a directive, it MUST contain a list of ID Refs which refer to the authentication mechanism with which the directive is associated. If the attribute is present, the directive MUST be taken to apply only to those descriptions referred to in the ID Refs list. This may be useful if certain directives are incompatible with certain security mechanisms.
