Before configuring the adapter in iWay Service Manager, you must first create a target, which represents a connection to a back-end system, using iWay Explorer. For more information on configuring targets and connections using iWay Explorer, see Creating Targets or the iWay Explorer User's Guide.
You configure the adapter in the iWay Service Manager console. The configuration process creates run-time connection and persistent data files within Service Manager. The configuration process interrogates the Service Manager repository entries that were built when the target and connection were created using iWay Explorer. The defined adapter process creates the run-time repository based on the design-time repository.
To define an adapter:
The iBSP URL pane opens, as shown in the following image.
An adapter selection pane opens, as shown in the following image.
The connection information associated with the target selected is displayed as shown in the following image.
The adapter appears in the adapters list, as shown in the following image.
The following image shows the Adapter Defines pane which displays the name of the adapter and the description (optional).
To modify or update an adapter connection:
The pane that displays the target connection information opens. You cannot change the name of the adapter or the target, but you can edit the connection information.
