Before Managing Adapter Services
Perform the following steps before configuring or managing adapter services.
*To prepare to configure or manage Adapter for Terracotta services
1. Start the Integration Server and Integration Server Administrator, if they are not already running.
2. Make sure you have administrator privileges to access the Adapter for Terracotta 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 WmTCDBAdapter package is enabled. For instructions, see Enabling Packages.
4. Using Integration Server Administrator, configure an adapter connection with the adapter service. For instructions, see Overview of Adapter for Terracotta Connections.
Note:
Integration Server provides built-in services that you can use at design time to change the connection associated with an adapter service. For more information, see Change the Connection Associated with an Adapter Service at Design Time.
5. Start Designer if it is not already running.
6. Using Designer, create a user-defined package to contain the services, if you have not already done so. When you configure adapter services, you must always define them in user-defined packages rather than in the WmTCDBAdapter package. For more information about managing packages for the adapter, see Overview of Package Management.
