Grouping subscriptions into mobile subscription sets

This task is part of the greater task of Setting up Synchronization. When you have completed the steps below, return to Setting up Synchronization

Administrators use subscription sets to define subscription and user groups. A subscription set can contain several subscriptions. A subscription set links the Sync Server to the Sync Client on a mobile device. The name of a subscription set that is defined on the Sync Server must match the name of the subscription set that is defined for the Sync Client on the mobile device.

Procedure

To create a subscription set:

  1. Open the DB2 Control Center and Mobile Devices Administration Center. For Windows, select Start --> Programs --> IBM DB2 Everyplace--> Start Mobile Devices Administration Center.

    For UNIX, change to $DSYINSTDIR/Server/bin, then run dsyadmin.sh.

  2. Right-click on the Subscription sets folder in the Mobile Devices Administration Center. Select Create.
  3. Type a name for the subscription set in the Name field. Note that the name must match the name of a subscription set on the mobile device. This example uses VNurse.
  4. Optional: Type a description for the subscription set in the Description field. This example uses Nurse Test Subscription set.
  5. Click the Subscriptions tab.
  6. Select the subscriptions you created from the Available subscriptions list. This example uses SCHEDULE and CONTACT. Click the > push button to move the subscription to the Selected subscriptions list.
