Preparing the environment for WebSphere Adapters nodes

Before you can use the WebSphere® Adapters nodes, you must set up the broker runtime environment so that you can access the Enterprise Information System (EIS).

Before you start:

Read WebSphere Adapters nodes.

To enable the WebSphere Adapters nodes in the broker runtime environment, configure the broker with the location of the EIS provider JAR files and native libraries. (On Windows, the location of the JAR files cannot be a mapped network drive on a remote Windows computer; the directory must be local or on a Storage Area Network (SAN) disk.)
  1. The WebSphere Adapters nodes require libraries from the EIS vendors. For more information on how to obtain and use these libraries, see Developing message flows that use WebSphere Adapters.
  2. Use the following commands to make the JAR files and shared libraries available to the WebSphere Adapters nodes.
    • To set up the dependencies, use the following command.
      mqsichangeproperties broker name -c EISProviders -o EIS type -n jarsURL -v jar directory
      mqsichangeproperties broker name -c EISProviders -o EIS type -n nativeLibs -v bin directory
      For example:
      mqsichangeproperties brk6 -c EISProviders -o SAP -n jarsURL -v c:\sapjco\jars
      mqsichangeproperties brk6 -c EISProviders -o SAP -n nativeLibs -v c:\sapjco\bin
      After you have run the mqsichangeproperties command, restart the broker so that the changes take effect.
    • To report the dependencies, use the following command.
      mqsireportproperties broker name -c EISProviders -o EIS type -r
      For example:
      mqsireportproperties brk6 -c EISProviders -o SAP -r
    • On z/OS®, run this command by customizing and submitting BIPJADPR.

    You can also connect to different versions of Siebel by creating a custom EISProviders configurable service and setting the location of the appropriate library files. For more information, see Connecting to different versions of Siebel.

When you have set up the environment for the WebSphere Adapters nodes, you can perform the preparatory tasks that are listed in Developing message flows that use WebSphere Adapters.
