WebSphere brand IBM WebSphere Premises Server 6.1 Feature Pack for Sensor Event Services

Configuring WebSphere Premises Server and InfoSphere Traceability Server integration

The Track and Trace use case application interfaces with the InfoSphere™ Traceability Server system using two separate interfaces, the query interface and the capture interface.

Before you begin

The steps in this task are completed by the WebSphere® Premises Server 6.1 Feature Pack for Sensor Event Services installation program. Perform the steps in this task only if a reconfiguration of the use case is required.

About this task

The query interface is a Web services interface. The endpoints are configurable by the Resource Environment custom properties. There is no setup necessary for the SOAP/HTTP query interface. The capture interface is the WebSphere MQ interface. The observe, shipping, and receiving events are submitted to the InfoSphere Traceability Server through this interface. A WebSphere MQ channel is configured between the WebSphere Premises Server and InfoSphere Traceability Server node by performing the following steps.

      • Remote queue manager: RFIDICv11.QUEUE.MANAGER
      • Transmission queue: TO.RFIDIC
    8. Click Apply > OK.
    9. Create a channel by clicking Advanced in the IBM.DC.QM queue manager and then right-clicking Channels and selecting New > Sender Channel.
    10. Enter a name and the following information for the new channel:
      • Transmission protocol: TCP
      • Connection name: IP_ADDRESS(PORT_NUMBER)_OF_ITS
      • Transmission queue: TO.RFIDIC
    11. Click Apply > OK.
