The InterChange Server repository is a database that holds metadata about
InterChange Server components. You must load the repository data
(collaboration templates, collaboration definitions, connectors, business
objects, and maps) into the database once.
- Note:
- InterChange Server must be running to load the repository.
To load the repository, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the ProductDir\repository directory of
the machine on which InterChange Server resides.
This directory contains the input files, which are Java archive
(.jar) files, that hold the metadata for the repository. For an
ICS component (such as a collaboration) you choose to install, Installer
automatically copies the appropriate input files.
- Load the repository using repos_copy, passing as arguments the
server name, the InterChange Server user name and password, and the input
file.
- To restart InterChange Server:
- Follow the instructions in the section titled "Shutting down InterChange
Server" in the Implementation Guide for WebSphere InterChange
Server to shut down the server.
- Follow the instructions in the section titledStarting InterChange Server to start the server up again.
- After InterChange Server is running, connect to the server instance using
System Manager, as described in the section titled "Registering an InterChange
Server instance" in the Implementation Guide for WebSphere InterChange
Server.
You can use the InterChange Server Component Management view in System
Manager to browse the components loaded into the server.
