WebSphere brand IBM WebSphere Telecom Web Services Server, Version 7.1

Group schema configuration

The user or administrator can use the TWSS Administration Console to specify the list of schemas to support. The Access Gateway uses the IBM® XDMS component to resolve groups, and it can define and configure groups apart from the group scheme.

About this task

The user or the administrator who is specifying the supported group schema, should be aware of the what groups he or she wants to support. The groups are internally defined by the IBM XDMS server.

This configuration applies to the following Web service implementations:
  • WAP Push over SMPP
  • Parlay X SMS over SMPP
  • Parlay X Terminal Location over MLP
  • Parlay X Terminal Status over Parlay
  • Parlay X Terminal Location over Parlay
  • Parlay X SMS over Parlay
  1. Open the TWSS Administration Console.
  2. Navigate to the Common Service Settings page and open the Runtime tab.
  3. Populate the General Properties fields. Depending on which Web service implementations you are working with, the fields will include a subset of the following:
    • Country and Code: The local country and code. The default setting is United States [1].
    • Address Plan: The local address plan. The default value in the drop-down list is com.ibm.mds.comm.support.E164AddressPlan.
    • Enable Group Resolution: Whether or not to resolve the group URI to member URIs. The default value in the drop-down list is true.
    • Periodic Notification Supported: Whether or not periodic notification is enabled. The default value in the drop-down list is true.
    • Geographical Notification Supported: Whether or not notifications may be set on a geographical area. The default value in the drop-down list is true.
    • Terminal Location Enabled: Whether or not the Terminal Location Web service is enabled. The default value in the drop-down list is true.
    • Network Resource Name: The default value is PX21_TL_MLP.
    • Enable Transaction Monitoring: The default value in the drop-down list is false.
      Note: If you specify true, then all transactions are monitored. A warning is issued when a transaction remains in the same state for a time period exceeding that specified in the service policy service.common.Monitor.stateTransition.warning. A warning and an alarm are issued when the time period in the service policy service.common.Monitor.stateTransition.alarm is exceeded.
    • Supported Group Scheme: The group scheme to use. The default value is glmgroup.
  4. Enable the Service Platform components you want by inserting their endpoint URIs in the Common Components section.
  5. Click OK. The group schema is defined within the TWSS Administration Console.
Results

If an user sends an SMS to a group that is defined in IBM XDMS, a group schema check is made with the group that is defined in the administration console. If the IBM XDMS and the group schema defined in the Administration Console match each other, then the group will be processed.

These settings are not used in ESB. This attribute does not configure the AG schema, and the IBM XDMS allows the user to configure many other group schema's apart from group. The attribute configuration indicates the service implementation concerning the group schema's that the SI wants to support. If the group schema passed from the IBM XDMS is present in the supported group schema attribute, the group will be processed and the requested operation is performed on each target.

Note: The user can define a list of group schemes separated by a comma (,), which acts as a delimiter.

Here is an example of group schemes: mygroup, glmgroup, ibmgroup. The default supported group scheme name is glmgroup.
