Install the connector on the integration node on which
you want to test its function.
Procedure
To install the connector on the integration node,
complete the following steps:
- Stop the integration node on which you want to install
your connector.
- Save the JAR file that contains your connector in workpath/connectors.
For example, the default workpath directory on
Windows is
C:\ProgramData\IBM\MQSI.
You
can find the location of the work path by running the following command:
mqsireportbroker integrationNodeName
If the connector JAR file contains other JAR files, extract
the connector JAR file to a folder with the same name as the parent
JAR file under
workpath/connectors.
For example:
- Restart the integration node to ensure that the integration
node picks up the new file.
The connector is available
to all integration servers on that integration node.
Results
The integration node loads the connector
files during initialization. After the files are loaded, the integration
node calls the registration functions in the connector and records
what nodes or parsers the connector supports.
What to do next
Install the user-defined node for your connector by following
the instructions in Installing the user-defined node for a connector in the IBM Integration Toolkit.
