When you have finished configuring your connector, you save the
connector configuration file. Connector Configurator will save it
in the broker mode that you selected during configuration. The
title bar of Connector Configurator always displays the broker mode
(ICS, WMQI or WAS) that it is currently using.
The file is saved as an XML document. You can save the XML
document in three ways:
For ICS:
- From System Manager, as a file with a *.con extension
in a an ICS User Project, or
- In a directory that you specify.
- In stand-alone mode, as a file with a *.cfg extension
in a directory folder, if you are using the file as a local
configuration file.
For WMQI:
- In stand-alone mode, as a file with a *.cfg extension
in a directory folder.
For WAS:
- From System Manager, as a file with a *.con extension
in a WAS User Project, or
- In a directory that you specify.
- In stand-alone mode, as a file with a *.cfg extension
in a directory folder.
After you have created the configuration file and set its
properties, you need to deploy it to the correct location for your
connector.
- If you are using ICS as your integration broker, save the
configuration in a System Manager project, and use System Manager
to load the file into ICS.
- If you are using WMQI as your integration broker, copy the
configuration file to the correct location, which must match
exactly the configuration file location specified in the startup
file for your connector.
- If you are using WAS as your integration broker, save the file
in a WAS user project. Use File>Export to create
.wsdl files that you can then import into WSAD-IE.
You can also export the configuration file as a .jar file
to a specified directory.
