Configuring Polling Notification Nodes
Perform the following procedure to configure a polling notification node. You can use Designer to configure a polling notification node.
*To configure a polling notification node
1. Start Designer.
Note:
Make sure that the Integration Server, with which you want to use Designer, is running.
2. Select a namespace node package in which to create the adapter service node.
3. Create a folder in the selected package and navigate to that folder in the Package Navigator section of Designer.
4. Select File > New.
5. Select Adapter Notification from the list of elements.
6. On the Create a New Adapter Notification screen, type a name for your service in the Element name field and click Next.
7. On the Select Adapter Type screen, select the name of your adapter and click Next.
8. On the Select a Template screen, select an adapter notification template and click Next.
9. On the Select an Adapter Connection Alias screen, select the appropriate adapter connection name and click Next.
Important:
If you are using the adapter with Integration Server 8.0 SP1 or earlier, adapter services cannot use connections that are also used for adapter listeners.
10. Click Finish.
11. Select File > Save.
The adapter creates the notification node and a document (named notificationNamePublishDocument). This document is used to contain the data of the affected portion of the adapter resource (such as a database row), and to inform Integration Server of the changes.
12. In the Adapter Notification Editor's Message Polling tab, select a polling event from the Polling Name field.
13. Configure the Adapter Notification Editor fields as appropriate for your adapter resource. For information about using the Adapter Notification Editor, see the webMethods Service Development Help for your release.
14. Select File > Save.
15. Schedule and enable the notification at runtime, as described in Scheduling and Enabling Polling Notification Nodes.
