Use this task to configure the human task container.
Why and when to perform this task
If you have run the bpeconfig.jacl script, the human task container
is already configured. It is possible to configure the human task container
by performing
Using the taskconfig.jacl script to configure the human task container.
The following steps describe how to configure the human task container using
the installation wizard.
Steps for this task
- In the administrative console, click . Then in the Container Settings section, click (in the Additional Properties section). Where possible, the installation wizard offers appropriate default values
in the parameter fields, you can view the recommended values on the Human task container installation wizard settings.
- Verify that the human task container is not configured. There should be a message indicating that the Human Task Manager is
not currently installed. If the human task container is already configured,
remove the configuration before you start the installation wizard. For details
about how to remove the configuration, see Removing the Business Process Choreographer configuration.
- Select the JMS provider and security settings (step 1):
- In the drop-down list for JMS provider,
select the messaging service that is used by the business process container.
- For Queue Manager, use the default provided
(BPC_nodeName_serverName).
- If you are using external messaging (WebSphere MQ JMS provider)
and you have not defined the WebSphere environment variable ${MQ_INSTALL_ROOT},
make sure that Classpath points to the WebSphere MQ
Java lib directory.
- For the JMS user ID, enter a user ID that has administration
rights for the messaging service. On Linux® and UNIX® systems, use root. On Windows® systems,
use the user ID that is used to start WebSphere Process Server.
- For the JMS password, enter the password for the JMS
user ID.
- For Escalation user ID, enter the user
ID that will be used to access the messaging service.
- For Escalation password, enter the password
for the escalation user ID.
- For Administrator security role mapping,
enter the group from the domain's user registry to map onto the role of human
task administrator.
- For System monitor security role mapping,
enter the group from the domain's user registry to map onto the task monitor
role.
- Click Next to go to the next step in
the installation wizard.
- Select the JMS Resources (step 2): If you are not reusing
an existing JMS connection factory and queues, which is normally the case,
select Create new JMS resources using default values.
Otherwise, perform the following:
- Select Select existing JMS resources.
- Use the Connection Factory drop-down
list to select the connection factory you want to use.
- Use the default Hold Queue value HTMHldQueue.
- Use the default Retention Queue value.
- Select Mail session to
create the default mail session resource, named mail/HTMNotification_nodeName_serverName.
Attention: If this is not set, no escalation mails are sent.
- To use the Common Event Infrastructure, select Enable
Common Event Infrastructure logging .
- To enable the audit log, select Enable
audit logging for all human tasks .
- Click Next to view the Summary (step 3).
- Check that the information on the summary page is correct. The summary includes reminders of which external resources are necessary.
If you have not already created them, you can continue configuring the human
task container, but you must create the resources before you activate the
human task container. Printing the summary page helps you to create the correct
resources.
- To make corrections, click Previous.
- To install the human task container and define its resources,
click Finish. The progress is shown
on the Installing page.
- If no error is displayed in the console window, click Save
Master Configuration, then click Save.
- Restart the application server.
- If the container did not install successfully, check for any error
messages that can help you correct the problem, then repeat this task.
Check the administrative console or the SystemOut.log file
for the application server. On a cluster, check the log for all application
servers in the cluster.
