You can set your system up to create and run multiple instances of a connector by following the steps below. You must:
You must create a connector directory for each connector instance. This connector directory should be named:
ProductDir\connectors\connectorInstance
If the connector has any connector-specific meta-objects, you must create a meta-object for the connector instance. If you save the meta-object as a file, create this directory and store the file here:
ProductDir\repository\connectorInstance
You can specify the ICS servername as a parameter of startup.bat; an example is start_Telcordia.bat connName ICSName.
/QIBM/UserData/WBIServer43/servername/connectors/connectorInstance
where connectorInstance uniquely identifies the connector instance and where servername is the name of the InterChange Server Express instance with which the connector runs
If the connector has any connector-specific meta-objects, you must create a meta-object for the connector instance. If you save the meta-object as a file, create this directory and store the file here: /QIBM/UserData/WBIServer43/servername/repository/connectorInstance
where servername is the name of the InterChange Server Express instance with which the connector runs
ProductDir/connectors/connectorInstance
where connectorInstance uniquely identifies the connector instance If the connector has any connector-specific meta-objects, you must create a meta-object for the connector instance. If you save the meta-object as a file, create this directory and store the file here: ProductDir/repository/connectorInstance
You can specify the ICS servername as a parameter of connector_manager; an example is connector_manager -start connName [-cConfigFile].
If the business object definitions for each connector instance do not already exist within the project, you must create them.
\ProductDir\repository\initialConnectorInstance
Any additional files you create should be in the appropriate connector instance subdirectory of \ProductDir\repository
/QIBM/UserData/WBIServer43/servername/ repository/initialConnectorInstance
where servername is the name of the InterChange Server Express instance with which the connector runs.
Any additional files you create should be in the appropriate connectorInstance subdirectory of: /QIBM/UserData/WBIServer43/servername/repository
/ProductDir/repository/initialConnectorInstance
Any additional files you create should be in the appropriate connectorInstance subdirectory of /ProductDir/repository
You create a configuration file (connector definition) for the connector instance in Connector Configurator Express. To do so:
To create a startup script:
dirname
(For Linux only.)You must change the start-up script CONJAR from CONJAR=${CONDIR}/CW${CONNAME}.jar to "CONJAR=${CONDIR}/CWTelcordia.jar"
where newTelcordianame is a ten-character name that you use for the job description for your new Telcordia connector
You can now run both instances of the connector on your integration server at the same time.
