h3. Identifying operations
The mapping between operations of the WSDL and operations supported by the SE Activity is declared using a dedicated binding. The binding "Activity" is done adding the element {{\{http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0}operation}} {{\{}}{{[http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0]}}{{}operation}} to the element operation of the binding. Its attribute *{{activityAction}}* {{{*}activityAction{*}}} defines the operation that will be executed.
h3. Identifying input parameters of operations
In the same way, input parameters of operations are mapped through an annotation placed inside the message of the binding operation. Two natures of input parameters exists: the expected input parameters and variables. Each Activity operation can require mandatory or optional input parameter and can accept to set several variables in the same time.
Input parameters are identified by the annotation adding the element {{\{http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0}inpu-parameter}}. {{\{}}{{[http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0]}}{{}input-parameter}}. This annotation takes also two attributes:
* the attribute *{{name}}* {{{*}name{*}}} defines a name of an expected input parameter of the Activity operation,
* the attribute *{{value}}* {{{*}value{*}}} defines the value to set to the expected input parameter using an XPath expression.
See operation details to know the expected input parameters.
Variables are identified by the annotation adding the element {{\{http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0}variable}}. {{\{}}{{[http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0]}}{{}variable}}. This annotation takes also two attributes:
* the attribute *{{name}}* {{{*}name{*}}} defines the variable name used in the process definition.
* the attribute *{{value}}* {{{*}value{*}}} defines the value to set to the variable using an XPath expression.
See operation details to know if variables can be set.
No extra check is done by the SE Activity about the compliance of the variable with the process definition.

h3. Identifying output parameters of operations
Output parameters of the Activity operation can not be set into the output reply of the service operation using a simple XPath expression as for input parameters. An XSL style-sheet is required to generated the full output reply. It is identified using the annotation adding the element {{\{http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0}output}}. {{\{}}{{[http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0]}}{{}output}}. The XSL style-sheet name is set into the attribute {{*xsl*}} {{{*}xsl{*}}} and loaded from the classloader. The XSL style-sheets are mainly located in the service-units, they can also be packaged as a shared library.
According to the Activity operation executed, its output parameters are transmitted to the XSL style-sheet through XSL parameters. You will use these XSL parameters to generate your service reply from your service request payload. See operation details to know the available XSL parameters.
{tip}For a unit test purpose, an extension of JUnit is available to test your XSL. See chapter "[Unit testing|#Unit_Testing]".{tip}

h3. Operations
h4. Create an instance of a process definition
The operation creating instances of process definition is identified by the value *{{createProcInstOp}}* {{{*}createProcInstOp{*}}} set on the attribute {{activityAction}}:
{code}
<wsdl:binding name="Order" xmlns:activity="http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0">
<wsdl:binding name="Order" xmlns:activity="http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0">
h4. Complete task of a process instance
The operation completing a task of a process instance is identified by the value *{{completeTaskOp}}* {{{*}completeTaskOp{*}}} set on the attribute {{activityAction}}:
{code}
<wsdl:binding name="Order" xmlns:activity="http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0" >
<wsdl:binding name="Order" xmlns:activity="http://petals.ow2.org/se/activity/1.0" >
It is possible to map several operations of the WSDL to complete tasks, for example when a process can have several task in progress concurrently.

h2. Using metrics
Several probes providing metrics are included in the component, and are available through the JMX MBean '{{org.ow2.petals:type=custom,name=monitoring\_}}{{{}*<component-id>*}}', where {{*<component-id>*}} is the unique JBI identifier of the component.
h3. Common metrics
h2. Receiving alerts
Several alerts are notified by the component through notification of the JMX MBean '{{org.ow2.petals:type=custom,name=monitoring\_}}{{{}*<component-id>*}}', where {{*<component-id>*}} is the unique JBI identifier of the component.
{tip}To integrate these alerts with Nagios, see [petalsesbsnapshot:Receiving Petals ESB defects in Nagios].{tip}
