About this task
To view and manage an integration node by using the
IBM Integration API Exerciser, complete the following steps:
Procedure
- Start the IBM Integration API Exerciser:
The IBM Integration API Exerciser window
opens.
- Connect to a running integration node by clicking
either:
The Connect to an
Integration Node dialog opens.
- Enter the connection parameters to the integration node,
then click .
Integration node information is retrieved and displayed
in the IBM Integration API Exerciser window. You have
now connected to the integration node.
The upper left of the
screen contains a hierarchical representation of the integration node
to which you are connected. Selecting objects in the tree causes the
table on the right to change, reflecting the attributes of the object
that you select. The Method column lists IBM Integration
API methods that you can call
in your own Java™ applications,
and the Result column indicates the data that is returned by calling
the IBM Integration
API method on the selected
object.
- Run an IBM Integration
API method
against an integration node object. IBM Integration
API methods are used to manage
objects in an integration node.
- In the navigation tree, right-click an integration node.
A pop-up menu opens to show all the available IBM Integration
API methods.
- Select Create integration server. The Create integration server dialog opens.
- Enter the name for a new integration server and click Submit. The output from the method is displayed in the log window
at the bottom of the screen. For example:
16:53:50 ----> iapi.exerciser.ExerciserAdministeredObjectListener.processActionResponse(...)
16:53:50 affectedObject = IBNODE
16:53:50 completionCode = success
16:53:50 (Reference property) commsmessage.lastinbatch=true
16:53:50 (Reference property) uuid=595e1d10-3875-11d4-a485-000629be5bf8
16:53:50 (Reference property) child.uuid=1d8b3c5d-2001-0000-0080-c2000502e620
16:53:50 (Reference property) configmanagerproxy.osname=Windows
16:53:50 (Reference property) child.name=int_server2
16:53:50 (Reference property) userid=myuserID
16:53:50 (Reference property) configmanagerproxy.hostname=myhost
16:53:50 (Reference property) commsmessage.configobjecttype=Broker
16:53:50 (Reference property) type=Broker
16:53:50 (Reference property) child.type=ExecutionGroup
16:53:50 (Reference property) commsmessage.operationtype=createchild
16:53:50 (Reference property) timetowaitms=30000
16:53:50 <---- iapi.exerciser.ExerciserAdministeredObjectListener.processActionResponse()
In
this example, completionCode = success means
that the request to create the integration server is successful.
The lines marked (Reference property) describe
the request to which the response refers.
Results
During these steps you connected to an
integration node, viewed the integration node information, and performed
a management task by using the
IBM Integration API Exerciser.
What to do next
Continue to work with the
IBM Integration API Exerciser,
or run another sample.
