Introduction - Security Directory Integrator
SDI extracts information from files, LDAP directories, and databases using transports, protocols and APIs, and transfers this data someplace else.
Development environment Configuration Editor (CE). Used to create Integration projects. Teams across the organization can share SDI assets. Run-time engine Servers used to run the SDI solutions assembled in the CE.
SDI includes the IBM JSEngine for the scripting environment, which we can use to extend built-in functionality.
Install SDI
The installer will ask you to specify:
Installation Directory Program files, batch-files and scripts Solution Directory (SolDir) Current folder when running SDI. The startup batch-files and scripts for the Config Editor development environment (ibmditk) and the Server (ibmdisrv) both start with a command to change directory to the Solution Directory. As a result, all relative paths used in the solution will be expanded from your Solution Directory. workspace folder Project and resource files. This will default to a folder named "workspace" in the Solution Directory.
See SDI v7.2 Installation and Administrator Guide.
Install the tutorial files
The tutorial exercises require supporting data files located in...
SDI_Install/examples/Tutorial
For example, a standard Windows installation would place these files in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\IBM\TDI\V7.2\examples\Tutorial
The 'Tutorial' directory should contain the following files:
- CreatePhoneDB.assemblyline
- index.html
- OtherPage.html
- People.csv
- PhoneNumbers.xml
- readme.txt
- Return web page.script
The installer will ask you to specify the location of your Solution Directory. This is where project and resource files will be stored, and it will typically be a sub-directory called...
HOME/TDI/SolDir
Copy the Tutorial folder to your Solution Directory in order to make it more readily accessible from the Configuration Editor tooling.
