Before you Configure Listener Notifications
Perform the following tasks before configuring listener notifications:
1. Install webMethods Integration Server and Adapter for Apache Kafka on the same machine. For details, see Overview of installing and uninstalling Adapter for Apache Kafka.
2. Make sure that you have webMethods administrator privileges so that you can access the Adapter for Apache Kafka's administrative screens. For information about setting user privileges, see the Integration Server for your release.
3. Start Integration Server and Integration Server Administrator, if they are not already running.
4. Using Integration Server Administrator, make sure that the WmKafkaAdapter package is enabled. To verify the status of the WmKafkaAdapter package, see Enabling Packages.
5. Start Designer if it is not already running.
6. Using Designer, create a user-defined package to contain the listener, if you have not already done so. For more information about managing packages, see Overview of Package Management.
7. Using Integration Server Administrator, configure an adapter connection to use with the listener. For more information, Overview of Adapter for Apache Kafka Connections.
