Connection retry settings for WebSphere Adapter for Siebel Business Applications

Troubleshooting


Problem

WebSphere Adapter for Siebel Business Applications version 6.1.0.5 now supports connection retry and stale connection validation.

Symptom

The previous version of WebSphere Adapter for Siebel Business Application V6.1.0.5 did not support the connection retry and stale connection validation features.

Resolving The Problem

Use the Service Generation and Deployment Configuration window to specify the connection retry settings for the adapter, as illustrated in the figure below:



Updated information about the new properties to specify the connection retry settings is given below:

Maximum retries in case of system connection failure (connectionRetryLimit)




This property specifies the maximum number of times the adapter will attempt to re-establish an outbound connection to the enterprise information system (EIS). The adapter validates the connection to EIS for every outbound operation if this property is greater than zero.

Table 1. Maximum retries in case of system connection failure details
RequiredNo
Possible valuesIntegers
Default0
Property typeInteger
UsageOnly greater than zero is valid.

This property specifies the number of times the adapter will attempt to re-establish a connection to the server, when the adapter encounters an error related to outbound connection.

Note:If the value is greater than zero, the adapter validates the connection in every operation. It has some impact on performance.
GlobalizedNo
Bidi supportedNo

Retry interval if connection fails (in milliseconds) (connectionRetryInterval)




This property specifies the time interval between the attempts to re-establish an outbound connection to the EIS.




If the Maximum retries in case of system connection failure property is greater than zero, this property indicates the time interval that the adapter waits in between the attempts to retry the connection to the EIS.

Table 2. Retry interval if connection failure details
RequiredNo
Possible valuesPositive Integers
Default60000
Unit of measureMilliseconds
Property typeInteger
UsageWhen the adapter encounters an error while establishing a connection to the FTP server, this property specifies the time interval the adapter waits between attempts to re-establish a connection.
GlobalizedNo
Bidi supportedNo
