Reconfiguring InterChange Server after installation

At any time after you have installed InterChange Server, if you want to reconfigure the installation--for example, to specify another host machine--follow the procedures in the sections below. There are two tools you can use to configure InterChange Server:

InterChange Server using the Configuration Wizard

See Appendix A, InterChange Server configuration parameters for specific configuration parameter information.

  1. Navigate to the ProductDir/bin directory.
  2. Enter the command ./ICSConfig.sh ServerName

    The InterChange Server Configuration window appears.

  3. Follow the instructions in Configuring InterChange Server during installation to use the InterChange Server Configuration wizard.

    If you make any changes in the WebSphere MQ tab, you will be prompted to update your local connector configuration files. Click OK to exit this prompting screen.

  4. Click OK when the Changes complete window appears.
  5. Click Exit.

InterChange Server using System Manager

System Manager provides more flexibility when configuring InterChange Server, but the server must be running and System Manager must be connected to it.

Do the following to edit the InterChange Server configuration in System Manager:

  1. Open System Manager
  2. Connect System Manager to the InterChange Server instance.
  3. Right-click the InterChange Server instance and choose Edit Configuration from the context menu.
  4. Make the desired changes in the configuration tabs.
  5. When you are done use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+S to save the file.

More details on using System Manager for configuring Interchange Server are provided in WebSphere InterChange Server: Implementation Guide for WebSphere InterChange Server.

Using the Connector Script Generator tool

The Connector Script Generator utility creates or modifies the connector script for connectors running on the UNIX platform. Use this tool to do either of the following:

To run the Connector Script Generator, do the following:

  1. Navigate to the ProductDir/bin directory.
  2. Enter the command ./ConnConfig.sh.
  3. From the Select Connector Name list, select the connector for which the startup script is to be generated.
  4. Either type the full path and name of the connector's configuration file in the Agent Config File field or click Browse to select the file.
  5. To generate or update the connector script, click Install.

    The connector_manager_ConnectorName file (where ConnectorName is the name of the connector you are configuring) is created in the ProductDir/bin directory.

  6. Click Close.
