Verify adapter functionality
This step verifies that the adapter can connect to the Acumos instance and access the catalog(s) of models on the instance.
Open the DCAE MOD design tool (this normally is found at ingress_controller_address/nifi/, where ingress_controller_address is the FQDN or IP address of a Kubernetes node where an ingress controller is running.
From the "hamburger menu" on the upper right side of the design tool, select the Import item:
Select the Import Models... item. A dialog box will appear:
Enter the URL for your Acumos instance and press the Lookup button. This will cause the Acumos adapter to attempt to connect to the Acumos instance and retrieve any catalogs available on the Instance. If it can connect, a drop-down box listing the available catalgos will appear in the dialog, along with a button labeled Onboard.
Drop down the catalog listing and select a catalog. A list of "solutions" (models) will appear. The exact content of the catalog list will depend on what catalogs your Acumos instance makes available. Similarly, the set of solutions will depend on your Acumos instance. Select a catalog, select a solution, and select a revision. Here's an example (your Acumos instance probably will not have this exact content):
Press the Onboard button. The process may take up a few minutes, as the adapter will need to create a Docker image and push it to your configured repository. Eventually, you will see a pop-up message announcing success.
You can then drag a process element onto the screen and find the component that you just onboarded:
This verifies that the component has been onboarded and is available for use in a DCAE service design. You can also check your Docker repository to verify that the Docker image has been pushed there.
