This topic describes how to enable the Common Event Infrastructure
(CEI) for the adapter.
Why and when to perform this task
You must publish the IBM WebSphere Adapters Event Definitions file
to the CEI catalog before you can set these event definitions. For instruction
on how to do this, refer to the CEI documentation found on the WebSphere Process
Server web site at
http://www.ibm.com/software/integration/wps.
Steps for this task
- Start the WebSphere administrative console.
- Go to and select <your server name>.
- There are many options for the General Properties. Select Change
Log Detail Level, and then select com.ibm.j2ca.* for
JCA components. Under this section there is a subcomponent for each adapter
type:
- com.ibm.j2ca.flatfile.* (WebSphere Adapter for Flat Files)
- com.ibm.j2ca.jdbc.* (WebSphere Adapter for JDBC)
- com.ibm.j2ca.peoplesoft.* (WebSphere Adapter for PeopleSoft)
- com.ibm.j2ca.sap.* (WebSphere Adapter for SAP)
- com.ibm.j2ca.siebel.* (WebSphere Adapter for Siebel)
- Select the component that matches your adapter. Each adapter component
has two subcomponents, one for logging and one for CEI. They are:
- subcomponent name.log.adapter id
- subcomponent name.cei.adapter id
For example, com.ibm.j2ca.siebel.cei.<AdapterID1>. For each instance
of a deployed adapter, the system will show a separate ID.
- Select the CEI adapter ID that you want to enable.
- From the drop-down menu, you can choose from the following:
- off - turn CEI off
- fine- turn CEI on with Event Content set to Empty
- finer- turn CEI on with Event Content set to Digest
- finest- turn CEI on with Event Content set to Full
- all - same as finest
What to do next
For information on what each Event Content level means (Empty, Digest
and Full), and for more information on using the Common Base Event model and
the Common Event Infrastructure, refer to the documentation on the WebSphere
