Use the Supported Business Objects tab in Connector Configurator to specify the business objects that the connector will use. You must specify both generic business objects and application-specific business objects, and you must specify associations for the maps between the business objects.
For you to specify a supported business object, the business objects and their maps must exist in the system.
To specify that a business object definition is supported by the connector, or to change the support settings for an existing business object definition, click the Supported Business Objects tab and use the following fields.
To designate that a business object definition is supported by the connector, with System Manager running:
To delete a business object from the supported list:
Deleting a business object from the supported list changes the connector definition and makes the deleted business object unavailable for use in this implementation of this connector. It does not affect the connector code, nor does it remove the business object definition itself from System Manager.
If a business object has Agent Support, the system will attempt to use that business object for delivering data to an application via the connector agent.
Typically, application-specific business objects for a connector are supported by that connector's agent, but generic business objects are not.
To indicate that the business object is supported by the connector agent, check the Agent Support box. The Connector Configurator window does not validate your Agent Support selections.
The maximum transaction level for a connector is the highest transaction level that the connector supports.
For most connectors, Best Effort is the only possible choice.
You must restart the server for changes in transaction level to take effect.
The MQ message set files (*.set files) contain message set IDs that Connector Configurator requires for designating the connector's supported business objects. See Implementing Adapters with WebSphere MQ Integrator Broker for information about creating the MQ message set files.
Each time that you add business object definitions to the system, you must use Connector Configurator to designate those business objects as supported by the connector.
To specify supported business objects:
When WebSphere Application Server is selected as your broker type, Connector Configurator does not require message set IDs. The Supported Business Objects tab shows a Business Object Name column only for supported business objects.
If you are working in stand-alone mode (not connected to System Manager), you must enter the business object name manually.
If you have System Manager running, you can select the empty box under the Business Object Name column in the Supported Business Objects tab. A combo box appears with a list of the business objects available from the Integration Component Library project to which the connector belongs. Select the business object you want from this list.
