Setting connection properties for the external service wizard

External service discovery connection properties establish a connection between the external service wizard of IBM Integration Designer, a tool used to create business objects, and the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server. The properties you configure in the external service wizard specify such things as connection configuration, bidi properties, and logging and tracing options.

Once a connection between the external service wizard and the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server is established, the external service wizard is able to access the metadata it needs from the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server to create business objects.

Some of the properties that you set in the external service wizard are used as the initial value for the resource adapter and managed connection factory properties that you can specify at a later time in the wizard.

The external service connection properties and their purposes are described in the following table. A complete description of each property is provided in the sections that follow the table. For information on how to read the property detail tables in the sections that follow, see Guide to information about properties.

If you set any of these connection properties using bidirectional script, you must set values that identify the format of the bidirectional script entered for that property.

External service connection properties for Adapter for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne
Property name Description
Environment Specifies the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment name
Log file output location Specifies the location of the log file for external service

Password Password of the adapter user account on the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment
Role Name of the role that is associated with the user name used to access the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment.
User name Name of the adapter user account on the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment


Environment

This property specifies the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment name.

Environment details
Required Yes
Default No default value
Property type String
Usage A JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment is a user-defined pointer that indicates the location of data and objects on a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server. Users can be authorized to use multiple JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environments on a single JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server.
Globalized Yes
Bidi supported Yes


Log file output location

This property specifies the location of the log file for external service.

Log file output location details
Required Yes
Default The .metadata directory of the workspace
Property type String
Usage Use this directory to hold the log file that will list the errors that occur during the discovery process. The type of discovery errors for which logging occurs is controlled by the Logging level property.
Example C:\IBM\wid6.1.0\workspace\.metadata\JDEMetadataDiscovery.log
Globalized Yes
Bidi supported No


Logging level

This property specifies the type error for which logging will occur during external service.

Logging level details
Required No
Possible values

ALL
OFF
FINE
FINER
FINEST
CONFIG
INFO
SEVERE
WARNING

Default SEVERE
Property type String
Usage Use this property to tailor tracing capabilities. By specifying an error type, you are indicating that trace operations will occur only for errors of the type specified.
Example

Accepting the default value of SEVERE will provide trace information on errors that fall into the SEVERE category. Severe errors mean that an operation cannot continue, though the adapter can still function. Severe errors also include error conditions that indicate an impending fatal error, that is, reporting on situations that strongly suggest that resources are on the verge of being depleted.

Other error descriptions are as follows:

  • Fatal – Adapter cannot continue. Adapter cannot function
  • Warning – Potential error or impending error. This also includes conditions that indicate a progressive failure, for example, the potential leaking of resources.

  • Audit – Significant event affecting adapter state or resources

  • Info – General information outlining overall operation progress
  • Config – Configuration change or status
  • Detail – General information detailing operation progress

Globalized Yes
Bidi supported No
