Symptoms

Provider want to create new Service Template in PBA-E which will be based on Parallels Operations Automation service gate.

However, when they go to Top > Product Director > Plan Manager > Service Templates and click the button 'Add New Service Template' they do not see POA gate in the list of available gates.

How to clone existing Service Template based on POA service gate or create a new one?

Cause

POA service gate is not available in the list of available ones when creating Service Template because such templates should not be created in PBA-E, they must be created directly in POA and being created in POA they will be automatically synchronized with PBA-E by means of PBA-E API.

Resolution

Provider may create new Service Template in POA control panel, it will be automatically synchronized with PBA-E.

Also, Provider may clone an existing Service Template in POA and it will be added to PBA-E as well. To do this Provider need to log into POA CP , select needed Service Template at Top > Service Director > Provisioning Manager > Service Templates and click the button 'Create a Copy'. As a result new Service Template will be created with the same set of resources and activation parameters as the original template has.
