Note: PX-BaaS picks the company name from your Profile page, and prepends it to the Name box. The maximum number of characters that you can enter for a service name is 63, including the characters in the prepended domain name. For example, if the company name is “portworx” (which is 8 characters), then you can enter only 55 characters in the Name text box.Select Submit.
A new Portworx service appears in the Portworx Services page. The company name prepends to each service name that you add.
Adding a service provides you the infrastructure administrator privileges to the service.
When you add a service, the Portworx Services page displays the following status types::
- Provisioning: when a service is being added
- Active: successful addition of a service
- Failed: when a service addition process fails
You can delete the Active and Failed services. If you want to report Failed issues or seek answers to your queries, select the Support icon from the left panel of the PX-BaaS portal:
