 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +An Operational Lifecycle State identifies the condition of an operational subject at a particular point within an [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:o:operational_lifecycle|Operational Lifecycle]].
 +
 +The governing Operational Lifecycle defines:
 +
 +  * The permitted Operational Lifecycle States
 +  * The events associated with state transitions
 +  * The permitted transitions between Operational Lifecycle States
 +  * The conditions that govern each transition
 +
 +An Operational Lifecycle State represents one state within the Operational Lifecycle of an operational subject.
 +
 +Examples of operational subjects include:
 +
 +  * An [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:i:infrastructure_environment|Infrastructure Environment]]
 +  * An [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:i:infrastructure_configuration|Infrastructure Configuration]]
 +  * An [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:i:infrastructure_blueprint|Infrastructure Blueprint]]
 +  * A [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:m:machine_image|Machine Image]]
 +  * A deployed service
 +  * A software component
 +  * A controlled [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:a:artifact|Artifact]]
 +
 +Examples of Operational Lifecycle States include:
 +
 +  * Defined
 +  * Created
 +  * Configured
 +  * Validated
 +  * Approved
 +  * Provisioned
 +  * Deployed
 +  * Active
 +  * Operational
 +  * Under Maintenance
 +  * Modified
 +  * Recovering
 +  * Replaced
 +  * Retired
 +  * Decommissioned
 +  * Archived
 +
 +The governing Operational Lifecycle determines the Operational Lifecycle States that apply to an operational subject.

 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +An Operational Lifecycle State identifies the operational subject's position within its Operational Lifecycle.
 +
 +An Operational Lifecycle State does not represent the complete configuration, resource inventory, runtime condition, or observed technical condition of the operational subject.
 +
 +An operational subject progresses from one Operational Lifecycle State to another through a permitted transition when the applicable transition conditions are satisfied.
 +
 +The plural display text [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:o:operational_lifecycle_state|Operational Lifecycle States]] refers to multiple instances of this singular concept.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +An Infrastructure Environment occupies the Operational Lifecycle State **Deployed** after its deployment transition completes, and the conditions defined for the Deployed state are satisfied.
 +
 +An activation event transitions the Infrastructure Environment from the Deployed state to the Operational state when the applicable transition conditions are satisfied.
