Configure the module for deployment
To configure the adapter so that it can be deployed on IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, use IBM Integration Designer to create a module, which is exported as an EAR file when you deploy the adapter. You then specify the business objects you want to discover and the system on which you want to discover them.
- Roadmap for configuring the module
Before you can use WebSphere Adapter for Oracle E-Business Suite in a runtime environment, configure the module. Understanding this task at a high level helps you perform the steps that are needed to accomplish the task.- Create the event store
You need to create the event store in the Oracle database before the adapter can process inbound events. You can set triggers on user tables as needed to populate the event store. For Oracle E-Business Suite, you need to configure the Oracle Business Event System and Concurrent Program to capture the event.
- Create an authentication alias
An authentication alias is a feature that encrypts the password used by the adapter to access the Oracle database. The adapter can use it to connect to the Oracle database instead of using a user ID and password stored in an adapter property.- Create the project
To begin the process of creating and deploying a module, you start the external service wizard in IBM Integration Designer. The wizard creates a connector project, which is used to organize the files associated with the module.- Adding external software dependencies
The external service wizard needs a copy of certain files from the Oracle E-Business Suite to be able to communicate with it. Specify the location of the JAR files that contain the JDBC driver for Oracle and any native system library files that are needed.- Setting connection properties for the external service wizard
For the external service wizard to connect to the database instance to discover database objects, connection properties must be specified.- Configure the module for outbound processing
To configure a module to use the adapter for outbound processing, use the external service wizard in IBM Integration Designer to find and select business objects and services from the Oracle database, and to generate the business object definitions and related artifacts.- Configure the module for inbound processing
To configure a module to use the adapter for inbound processing, use the external service wizard in IBM Integration Designer to find and select business objects and services from the Oracle database, and to generate business object definitions and related artifacts.- Configure the module for advanced queue integration
To configure a module to use the adapter for outbound or inbound processing, use the external service wizard in IBM Integration Designer to create the advanced queue header and payload business objects.- Configure the module for XML Gateway interface for web service
To configure the module for XML Gateway interface, use the external service wizard in Integration Designer.You can configure this interface only for the outbound integration.
You can select the number of interfaces you would want to create. For each interface you create, you can select the required elements as per your business requirement.
- Configure the module for XML Gateway interface for JMS
To configure the module for XML Gateway interface for JMS, use the external service wizard in IBM Integration Designer.You can configure this interface only for the outbound integration.
You can select the number of interfaces you would want to create. For each interface you create, you can select the required elements as per your business requirement.
