In UML modeling, you deploy artifacts
on nodes to indicate that the node supports the deployment of instances
of these artifacts when the system runs.
Before you begin
A diagram must be open in the diagram
editor and it must contain at least one node and one artifact.
About this task
To specify the deployment of an artifact on a node, in the
diagram editor, click an artifact and drag it over the Deployments
Textual or Deployments Graphical compartments of the node. You can
also create a Deploy relationship from the artifact to the node.
Results
As the following figure illustrates, the artifact, named
Artifact1, is connected by a dashed line to the node, named Node1,
An open arrowhead points from the artifact to the node. The artifact
is also displayed in the Deployments Textual and Deployments Graphical
compartments of the node, if those compartments are shown in the diagram.
Note: You can also deploy artifact instances on
node instances.
