Configuring the standard files

Before you begin: You need to have all the standard files associated with the Retek connector installed on your system.

Perform the following steps:

  1. In your ProductDir installation directory:
    1. Copy CWRetek.jar and start_Retek.bat to the connectors\Retek directory.
    2. Copy RetekConnector.txt from the messages folder of the installation image to the connectors\messages folder.
    3. Edit the start_Retek.bat file and set the JDBCDRIVERPATH environment variable to the full path name of the Oracle JDBC driver, classes12.zip.
  2. Import the Retek_RIHeader.out and any of the business object samples in the Business Object Designer.
  3. To configure a connector instance, use the CN_Retek.txt sample configuration file as a sample. Make sure to update the ListenQueue and SendQueue definitions with your ICS server name.
  4. Create a new connector instance by importing the file in System Manager. Then edit its configuration properties to suit your requirements.
  5. To configure the connector queues:
    1. Edit the crossworlds_mq.tst file located in the mqseries subdirectory of the ProductDir install directory, and add the following lines for each connector instance you want configured:

      DEFINE QLOCAL(IC/<ICSServerName>/<ConnectorName>)

      DEFINE QLOCAL(AP/<ConnectorName>/<ICSServerName>)

      DEFINE QLOCAL(APE/<ConnectorName>/<ICSServerName>)

      DEFINE QLOCAL(ICA/<ICSServerName>/<ConnectorName>)

      DEFINE QLOCAL(APA/<ConnectorName>/<ICSServerName>)

    2. From the Start menu, select Programs->IBM WebSphere InterChange Server-> IBM WebSphere MQ->Configure Queue Manager.
