Deploying and configuring for Scenario 2 (ALE outbound)

Scenario 2 of the ALE outbound sample application requires you to use the enterprise service discovery wizard to deploy the application package, configure the adapter, and generate the SCA artifacts.

Before you begin

Before you begin to deploy and configure:

Why and when to perform this task

For this task, you must run the Enterprise Service Discovery within IBM WebSphere Integration Developer to set adapter configuration properties. To change the property values later, use the WebSphere Process Server Administrative Console.

Steps for this task

  1. In the Business Integration Perspective of WebSphere® Integration Developer, right-click the frame and from the pop-up menu, select New > Enterprise Service Discovery.
  2. In the Import Configurations window, select IBM WebSphere Adapter for SAP Software.
  3. In the Discovery Agent Initialize Properties window, specify the configuration properties to initialize the discovery agent. Be sure to set the Select Module field to the value of ALE. Properties marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory.
  4. At the bottom of the Discovery Agent Initialize Properties window, click the Show Advanced button.
  5. When prompted to specify logging options, set the Logging Level to FINEST to provide the highest level of logging and then click Next.
  6. In the Metadata Query window, click Run Query.
  7. Under Objects Discovered, drill down to the Discover By Name node, and then click the Filter button.
  8. In the Filter Properties for Discover by Name window, enter DEBMAS03 (the name of the IDoc in SAP) and click OK.
  9. Navigate to DEBMAS03 and click the Add button.
  10. In the Configuration Parameters window, select the Use Field Name to generate attribute(s) check box, and click OK to add DEBMAS03 to the list of business objects to be imported.
  11. Click Next.
  12. In the Configure Objects window, specify the following:
    • BODEFS as the object location
    • A namespace for the business object.
    • Outbound as the Service Type.
  13. Click Add to specify the operations.
  14. Double-click EXECUTE to add it to the list of operations and click Next to continue. (The only valid operation for ALE outbound processing is EXECUTE.)
  15. In the Generate Artifacts window, specify the module name where the artifacts should be saved, and then click New to create a new business integration module.
  16. When prompted, enter CustomerMasterIDoc as the module name, and click Finish.
  17. Specify ScaArtifacts as the folder name within the module where the Service Description should be saved.
  18. Enter SAP_Auth_Alias in J2C Authentication Data Entry and select the Deploy connector with module check box.
  19. Select Use discovered connection properties and specify value for the connection properties.
  20. Click Finish. The new CustomerMasterIDoc module is added to the Business Integration Perspective, along with all its artifacts.
  21. Export the project to the .EAR file (note that the .EAR file does not yet exist; this step defines it):
    1. Right-click the CustomerMasterIDoc module and select Export from the pop-up menu.
    2. Select EAR file from the Export window.
    3. Click Next.
    4. In the EAR Export window, select CustomerMasterIDoc for the .EAR project and specify its destination directory. Then click Finish.
  22. In the EAR Export window, export the EAR file of the adapter:
    1. Select the .EAR file in the EAR project field.
    2. Specify its destination directory in the Destination field.
    3. Click Finish.
  23. Deploy the .EAR file.

What to do next

The adapter application package, including all its SCA artifacts, is now configured and deployed. You can now run the sample application.
