The Common Based Event (CBE) Adaptor component links together the Process Engine and the WebSphere Business Monitor server.
When processes are running, Process Engine records each event to the event logs in the Process Engine database. The BPM CBE Adaptor for WebSphere reads this data and converts the Process Engine events to CBE events, and then sends the converted events to the WebSphere Business Monitor server through the CEI layer.
Complete the following steps to deploy and configure the BPM CBE Adaptor for WebSphere before you run the WebSphere Business Monitor.
NOTE Complete the steps in order.
Step | Description |
---|---|
Step 1: Create the BPMSTATE database. | Execute the P8BPMCBEAdaptor.ddl script, which creates the BPMSTATE database and tables used by the BPM CBE Adaptor for WebSphere. |
Step 2: Create work manager. | Create a work manager, which is used to query events from multiple Process Engine event logs at the same time. |
Step 3: Create database authentication aliases. | Create authentication aliases to connect to the Process Engine and CBE Adaptor databases. |
Step 4: Create Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) data sources. | Create a JDBC data source to connect to the Process Engine database and CBE Adaptor databases. |
Step 5: Install the CBE Adaptor Application. |
Browse to the P8BPMCBEAdaptor.ear file and install the CBE Adaptor. |
Step 6: Set optional configuration properties. | Set optimal configuration properties to fine tune the behavior of the CBE Adaptor. |
Step 7: Start the BPM CBE Adaptor for WebSphere. | Start the BPM CBE Adaptor for WebSphere. |
