On the Windows system from which the server was installed, shortcuts are available under the IBM Websphere Business Integration Express for Item Sync v4.3 menu item. When you select to start an adapter or ODA using one of these shortcuts, a job is submitted to run under the QWEBBIICS subsystem on the iSeries where the server was installed. These jobs run as batch jobs, with no interactive user input possible. Bymaking changes to the shortcut properties, you can tailor the start of these jobs. For example, parameters may be added to specify an input configuration file. You can add parameters to these shortcuts and make other changes to these shortcuts.
When ODAs are started this way, then the jobs can be ended using normal
iSeries job control functions. These can be performed from the Windows
PC by using the iSeries Operations Navigator functions, or from an actual
iSeries terminal session. For example, from an iSeries terminal session
you can issue the WRKACTJOB SBS(QWEBBIICS) to view all the jobs currently
active for the erver. You can locate the job corresponding to the
service to be ended, and end job to end the service. The following job
names correspond to ODAs included in IBM WebSphere Business Integration
Express and Express Plus for Item Synchronization:
Table 13. Job names and corresponding ODAs
Job Name | ODA |
---|---|
QWEBBIJDBO | JDBC ODA |
QWEBBIXMLO | XML ODA |
QWEBBIWSO | Web Services ODA |
QWEBBISAPO | SAP ODA |
On the iSeries system on which the server was installed, QSHELL scripts are
available to start each of the supported ODAs. To start an ODA in this
manner, you must sign on to the iSeries with a terminal emulation
session. From the command line, type the QSHELL command to put the
terminal session into an environment that allows running of the shell
scripts. Use the following commands to run the scripts:
Table 14. QSHELL commands to start ODAs
Command | ODA |
---|---|
/QIBM/UserData/Webbiics/ODA/JDBC/start_JDBCODA.sh | JDBC ODA |
/QIBM/UserData/Webbiics/ODA/XML/start_XMLODA.sh | XML ODA |
/QIBM/UserData/Webbiics/ODA/WSDL/start_WSDLODA.sh | Web Services ODA |
/QIBM/UserData/Webbiics/ODA/SAP/start_SAPODA.sh | SAP ODA |
When ODAs are started this way, the jobs are run interactively, and may be ended in more than one way:
