WebSphere Adapter for Siebel Business Applications

Setting connection properties for enterprise service discovery

Use the enterprise service discovery wizard tool to introspect the Siebel application and locate the connection properties that are needed for the application and the adapter to communicate.

Before you begin

You must have created an adapter project with the external dependencies added to the adapter project.

About this task

To set the outbound connection properties so that the application and the adapter can communicate once the adapter is deployed to the server, use the following procedure.

How to perform this task

  1. From the WebSphere® Integration Developer window, switch to the business integration perspective by selecting Window > Open Perspective > Other > Business Integration from the menu bar.
  2. From the File menu, select New > Enterprise Service Discovery.
  3. From the Select an Enterprise Service Resource Adapter window, select the IBM WebSphere Adapter for Siebel Business Applications, and click Next.
  4. From the Configure settings for Discovery Agent window, provide values for the following connection properties:
    • Connect string
    • User name
    • Password
    • Language code
  5. In the Siebel Metadata Type field, select Siebel Business Objects or Siebel Business Object.
  6. In the Siebel Repository field, type a repository name. The default name is Siebel Repository.
  7. Select the BiDi transformation check box if bidirectional language text support is needed and click Next.
