3. Start your Integration Server and Integration Server Administrator, if they are not already running.

4. Using Integration Server Administrator, make sure the WmSAP package is enabled. See Enabling Packages for instructions.

5. Using Designer, create a user-defined package to contain the connection, if you have not already done so. For more information about managing packages for the adapter, see Managing the Adapter Package.
