To complete this task you use the WebSphere® Application Server Integrated
Solutions Console to install the ECI resource adapter, create a connection
factory, specify the connection factory properties, and deploy the
ECIIVT installation verification test .ear file.
- Install the CICS® Transaction
Gateway ECI resource adapter archive (RAR):
- In the WebSphere Administrative
Console, click Resources > Resource
Adapters, click Install RAR .
- Click Browse for the Local file system. Select the CICS ECI resource
adapter cicseci.rar. Take note of the scope; this choice limits the
scope of later connection factory definitions. In this scenario, the
scope is Node.
- Click Next. The resource adapter General
Properties dialog contains a predefined name and description for the
CICS ECI resource adapter. Leave the class path as it is currently
set, and leave the native library path blank.
- Click OK.
- Save the changes to the master configuration.
- Create and configure a J2C connection factory:
- In the WebSphere Administrative
Console, click Resources > Resource
Adapters. Click on the ECIResourceAdapter.
- Under Additional Properties click on J2C
connection factories.
- Click New.
- Specify a name for the new J2C connection factory, for example CF-20 and
specify the JNDI lookup name eis/CF-20. Leave
everything else with the default settings.
- Click OK.
- Click the new J2C connection factory CF-20.
- Click Additional Properties >Custom
Properties.
- In the Value column of the Custom properties
table, enter the values shown in the following screen:
You do not have
to supply a CICS password in
the password field because the IPIC connection is qualified with AttachSec=Identify.
- Save your configuration.
- Deploy the ECIIVT ECI resource adapter installation verification
test program:
- Install the application ECIIVT.ear with a target resource JNDI
name of ECIIVTBean1. The ECIIVT.ear is located within the <install_path>/deployable
directory.
- Map the resource reference to your connection factory JNDI name
eis/CF-20:
- Save your configuration.
- Restart WebSphere Application
Server if necessary (this depends on the version of WebSphere Application Server you are using).
You have now configured WebSphere Application Server.
