Partner Links

Context: 

In our environment, we maintain three different systems:  Our Development (DEV), our System Test (SYS), and our Production (PROD) systems.  When we develop we do our work in the DEV environment.  On completion of that development we deploy all our changes to the SYS environment for testing the code and testing the deployment process.  Once we have tested the functionality and deployment of changes, we then deploy our change to production.

Problem:

With the context of how we develop and deploy, I am trying to figure out how to reference partner links in such a way that when we go to deploy the change into one of our other environments that all these links are pointing to the new deployment environment.

I put this post in the category of deployment thinking that somehow the deployment process can handle re-directing these partner links to the correct services on the environment that I am deploying to.  But I acknowledge that this could be something that is handled as part of developing the BPEL process.

I hope to have an update soon, in which case I will post an update.  If you have some information or links to appropriate information please share.
