Defining the CentraSite Connection Parameters
To define the
CentraSite connection parameters
1. In the Event Server perspective, select Window > Preferences.
2. Locate the node CentraSite. Expand this node and select the subnode Connections.
This opens the Connections dialog, which shows the currently configured connections to CentraSite servers.
You can create a new configuration by clicking Add, or modify an existing configuration by clicking Edit.
3. In the field Name, specify a name of your choice that will be used to identify the configuration.
In the field Host, specify the URL of CentraSite's configuration file. For a local CentraSite installation, this is usually http://localhost:53305/INMConfiguration/INMConfiguration.xml.
In the field User, specify the name of a CentraSite user who has the required CentraSite permissions to register an asset in the CentraSite registry.
If you wish, you can supply the password of the CentraSite user, or you can omit the password at this time. If you supply the password, it is stored in the Eclipse secure storage and will be supplied to CentraSite every time CentraSite requires your user authorization. If you do not supply the password, CentraSite will prompt you for the password each time your user authorization is required.
To supply the password in the configuration, mark the checkbox Save password (in the Eclipse secure storage) and supply the password of the CentraSite user in the field Password.
4. Click Test to check that the CentraSite server can be accessed using the configuration parameters.
Click OK to store the configuration.
You can define several such configurations to CentraSite. However, only one of the configurations can be active at any given time. To set a configuration to be the active configuration, proceed as follows:
