Adapter environment

Before you can install, configure, and run an adapter, you must understand its environmental requirements.

Broker compatibility

The adapter framework that an adapter uses must be compatible with the version of the integration broker (or brokers) with which the adapter is communicating. The 4.5.x version of the adapter for Siebel eBusiness Applications is supported on the following adapter framework and integration brokers:

Adapter framework: WebSphere Business Integration Adapter Framework version 2.1, 2.2, 2.3.x, and 2.4.

Integration brokers:

Note:
For instructions on installing the integration broker and its prerequisites, see the following documentation.

For WebSphere InterChange Server (ICS), see the System Installation Guide for UNIX or for Windows.

For message brokers (WebSphere MQ Integrator Broker, WebSphere MQ Integrator, and WebSphere Business Integration Message Broker), see Implementing Adapters with WebSphere Message Brokers, and the installation documentation for the message broker. Some of this can be found at the following Web site:

http://www.ibm.com/software/integration/mqfamily/library/manualsa/.

For WebSphere Application Server, see Implementing Adapters with WebSphere Application Server and the documentation at:

http://www.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/library.html.

Adapter platforms

The adapter is supported on the following platforms:

Adapter dependencies

Before you use the connector, you must do the following:

User setup

Before installing the connector, you must create a user account for the connector in Siebel. This user account should have full access privileges, and the login name should be the same as the ApplicationUserName configuration property. The default value for the user account login name and password is CWCONN.

When installing the connector, be sure to install the files from one of the following lists to the %ProductDir%/Connectors/Siebel/dependencies directory. The files are located on either Siebel 6 or Siebel 7 server.

Important:
The start_Siebel.bat file in the %ProductDir%/Connectors/Siebel directory currently has the English and Japanese Siebel .jar files in the JCLASSES variable. This is added to the CLASSPATH. For any other language supported by Siebel, the corresponding .jar file must be added to the JCLASSES variable.

Siebel 6

Siebel 7.0x or 7.5x
