Subtopics
Configuring for Enterprise Information Systems
You can use configurable services to enable the WebSphere® Adapters nodes in
the integration node runtime environment to connect with Enterprise
Information Systems such as SAP, Siebel, and PeopleSoft.
Advanced configuration properties when using IBM Sterling Connect:Direct nodes CDInput and CDOutput nodes can get connection
details and staging directories in conjunction with a configurable
service. To pick up new values when a configurable service is created
or modified, you must reload the integration node or integration server, by using
the mqsistop and mqsistart commands, or the mqsireload command.
Configuring for IMS
You can use configurable services to enable the IMS nodes in the integration node
runtime environment to connect with the IMS system.
Configuring for CICS Transaction Server for z/OS
You can use configurable services
to enable the CICSRequest node
in the integration node runtime environment to connect with CICS Transaction
Server for z/OS.
Configuring for email
You can use configurable services
to enable the EmailOutput node
and EmailInput node in
the IBM Integration Bus runtime environment to connect with email servers.
Configuring properties for TCP/IP
If you are deploying message flows that contain TCP/IP
Nodes, and those nodes use a configurable service, set up your TCPIPClient/Server
configurable services before the message flows are deployed.
