The CLAMP Control Loop Automation Composition Runtime Lifecycle Management uses the following system-level dialogues. These dialogues enable the CLAMP runtime capabilities described in Section 2 of TOSCA Defined Control LoopsAutomation Compositions: Architecture and Design. Design Time dialogues will be described in future releases of the system.
...
Commissioning dialogues are used to commission and decommission Control Loop Automation Composition Type definitions and to set the values of Common Parameters.
Commissioning an Automation Composition Type is a three-step process
- The Automation Composition Type must be created, that is the Automation Composition Type definition must be loaded and stored in the database. This step may be carried out over the REST interface or using SDC distribution.
- The Common Properties of the Automation Composition type must be assigned values and those values must be stored in the database. This step is optional only if all mandatory common properties have default values. The Common Property values may be set and amended over and over again in multiple sessions until the Automation Composition Type is primed.
- The Automation Composition Type Definition and the Common Property values must be primed, which is sent to the concerned participants. Once an Automation Composition Type is primed, its Common Property values can no longer be changed. To change Common Properties on a primed Automation Composition Type, all instances of the Automation Composition Type must be removed and the Automation Composition Type must be de-primed.

Properties for an Automation Composition Type Definition
This dialogue sets the values of common properties. The values of the common properties may be set, updated, or deleted at will, as this dialogue saves the properties to the database but does not send the definitions or properties to the participants. However, once an Automation Composition Type Definition and its properties are primed (See Section 1.4), the properties cannot be changed until the Automation Composition type definition is de-primed (See Section 1.5).
1.4 Priming

an Automation Composition Type Definition on Participants
The Priming operation sends Automation Composition Type definitions and common property values to participants. Once an Automation Composition Type definition is primed, its property values can on longer be changed until it is de-primed.

2. Instantiation Dialogues
Instantiation dialogues are used to create, set parameters on, instantiate, update, and remove Control Loop Automation Composition instances.
Assume a suitable Control Loop Automation Composition Definition exists in the Commissioned Control Loop Automation Composition Inventory. To get a Control Loop To get an Automation Composition instance running one would, for example, execute dialogues 2.1, 2.3, and 2.4.
