Modify the configuration details for an endpoint listener that
has been configured for use with inbound services.
Why and when to perform this task
To list the endpoint listeners, and to view and modify their configuration
details, complete the following steps:
Steps for this task
- Start the administrative console.
- In the navigation pane, click one of the paths shown in the table Paths to this panel.

A list of endpoint listeners is displayed
in an endpoint
listener collection form.
- Click the name of an endpoint listener in the list. The
current endpoint
listener settings for this endpoint listener are displayed.
- Modify the following general properties. If you are configuring
an endpoint listener that is supplied with WebSphere Application Server, the
required values are given in Endpoint
listener configuration details.
- Name
- Modify the name by which the endpoint listener is known. This name must
match the name of the endpoint listener application that you have installed.
For example, for SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 1 the listener application
is soaphttpchannel1.ear and the endpoint listener name is SOAPHTTPChannel1.
Note: When
you change an endpoint listener name, the system looks up all objects that
refer to it and updates the name.
- Description
- Modify the (optional) description of the endpoint listener.
- URL Root
- Modify the address at which external clients access the endpoint listener
endpoint. The URL root is the context root of the endpoint enterprise application,
and provides the root of the Web address that is used to build the endpoint
addresses within WSDL files to direct requesters to this endpoint listener.
For example (for SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 1):
http://www.yourcompany.com/wsgwsoaphttp1
- WSDL serving HTTP URL root
- Each inbound service is described in a WSDL document. Modify
the root of the Web address for the WSDL files of the inbound services that
are available at this endpoint listener. The WSDL serving HTTP URL root is
used by the HTTP and JMS endpoint listeners, and also by UDDI registries,
to retrieve the WSDL for your inbound services. This URL comprises the HTTP
address at which external clients access the machine on which your endpoint
listener application is installed, followed by /sibws/wsdl.
For example:
http://www.yourcompany.com/sibws/wsdl
- Under the additional properties heading, click Connection
properties. A list of all the service integration
buses that are currently connected to this endpoint listener is displayed
in a service
integration bus connection properties collection form.
- Add, amend or delete buses in the list of currently-connected buses. For more information about connecting an endpoint listener to a service
integration bus, see Creating
a new endpoint listener configuration.
- Apply the changes.
If the processing completes successfully, the list of service integration
buses that are connected to this endpoint listener is updated, and the list
of endpoint listeners is redisplayed. Otherwise, an error message is displayed.
