Before Configuring or Managing Adapter Services
*To prepare to configure or manage an adapter service
1. Start your Integration Server and Integration Server Administrator, if they are not already running.
2. Make sure you have Integration Server administrator privileges so that you can access the Adapter for Salesforce administrative screens. For information about setting user privileges, see the webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide for your release.
3. Using Integration Server Administrator, make sure the WmSalesforceAdapter package is enabled. For instructions, see Enabling and Disabling Packages.
4. Using Integration Server Administrator, configure an adapter connection to use with the adapter service. For instructions, see Configuring Adapter Connections.
5. Start Designer if it is not already running.
6. Using Designer, create a package to contain adapter services, if you have not already done so. When you configure adapter services, define them in user-defined packages instead of in the WmSalesforceAdapter package. For more information about managing packages for the adapter, see Adapter Package Management.
7. Optionally, you can configure the watt.adapter.salesforce.sobjects.batchSize watt property in Integration Server Administrator to set the batch size for the retrieval of metadata for Salesforce objects. If you do not specify a value for the property, the adapter uses as a default value the maximum limit size of a batch of Salesforce objects (100) set by Salesforce.com.
For information about configuring the watt.adapter.salesforce.sobjects.batchSize watt property, see the webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide for your release.
