To specify that a business object definition is supported by the connector, or to
change the support settings for an existing business object definition, click the
Supported Business Objects tab and use the following fields.
Business object name: To designate that a business object definition is supported
by the connector, with System Manager running:
1. Click an empty field in the Business Object Name list. A drop list displays,
showing all the business object definitions that exist in the System Manager
project.
2.
Click on a business object to add it.
3. Set the Agent Support (described below) for the business object.
4. In the File menu of the Connector Configurator window, click Save to Project .
The revised connector definition, including designated support for the added
business object definition, is saved to an ICL (Integration Component Library)
project in System Manager.
To delete a business object from the supported list:
1.
To select a business object field, click the number to the left of the business
object.
2. From the Edit menu of the Connector Configurator window, click Delete Row .
The business object is removed from the list display.
3.
From the File menu, click Save to Project .
Deleting a business object from the supported list changes the connector definition
and makes the deleted business object unavailable for use in this implementation
of this connector. It does not affect the connector code, nor does it remove the
business object definition itself from System Manager.
Agent support: If a business object has Agent Support, the system will attempt to
use that business object for delivering data to an application via the connector
agent.
Typically, application-specific business objects for a connector are supported by
that connector’s agent, but generic business objects are not.
To indicate that the business object is supported by the connector agent, check the
Agent Support box. The Connector Configurator window does not validate your
Agent Support selections.
Maximum transaction level: The maximum transaction level for a connector is
the highest transaction level that the connector supports.
For most connectors,
Best Effort
is the only possible choice.
You must restart the server for changes in transaction level to take effect.
If a WebSphere Message Broker is your broker
If you are working in stand-alone mode (not connected to System Manager), you
must enter the business object name manually.
