Heat resource types#

The engine includes custom Heat resource types that represent resources on cloud systems and artifacts from the HCL™ Launch server.

These custom Heat types are in addition to the standard Heat resource types. For more information about the Heat Orchestration Templates (HOT), see the following reference information.http://docs.openstack.org/developer/heat/template_guide/hot_spec.html. The standard resource types are described on the following page: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/heat/template_guide/index.html.

To see a list of the types that are installed on your engine, open a command-line window and run the following command:

heat resource-type-list

To see information about a specific type, including its properties, use the heat resource-type-show command. For example, to see information about the IBM::UrbanCode::SoftwareDeploy::UCD type, run the following command:

heat resource-type-show IBM::UrbanCode::SoftwareDeploy::UCD
