Provisioning with Afaria

(Applies only to Online Data Proxy and Hybrid Web Container) Automate the process of provisioning applications by enabling a group of applications to be intially provisioned with a set of parameters from a configuration file using Afaria.

1. Setting Up the Afaria Environment
   Setting up the Afaria environment in Unwired Platform primarily involves configuring over-the-air (OTA) deployment. OTA deployment requires specific setup of the Afaria server and uses multiple tools to accomplish this task.
2. Prerequisites for Provisioning an Application Using Afaria
   (Applies only to Online Data Proxy and Hybrid Web Container) Verify that these prerequisites for provisioning an application using Afaria are completed by the IT admin and application developer.
3. Preparing the Provisioning File
   (Applies only to Online Data Proxy and Hybrid Web Container) Create the provisioning file required for automatic provisioning of an application, and provide it to the Afaria administrator.
4. Provisioning the Unwired Server Public Key
   (Applies only to Online Data Proxy and Hybrid Web Container) Retrieve the public key of the Unwired Server to populate its value in the provisioning file.
5. Creating a Provisioning File
   Provision applications through Afaria with a simple text configuration file that can be parsed by the client and from which data is then imported.
6. Provisioning Configuration Data and Certificates
   (Applies only to Online Data Proxy and Hybrid Web Container) Automate the process of provisioning applications by enabling a group of applications to be intially provisioned with a set of parameters from a configuration file, and transferring certificates, using Afaria.
7. Next Steps
   After you have provisioned the application, perform automatic or manual registration of application connections to associate users to the application.
