Adapter Settings

Changing Settings

The first part of this screen shows the current level of EntireX Tracing.

The second part shows the setting for the Date and Time format patterns. You can change these values with the Change Settings link. This has immediate effect. For the Date and Time format patterns, the syntax of the Java class java.text.SimpleDateFormat is used. Localized date and time pattern strings are also supported. In these strings, the pattern letters described above may be replaced with other, locale-dependent, pattern letters using the specified locale. The default value appears when a field is left empty.

Further Setting Options for Tracing

The adapter uses the logging facility of the Integration Server. The facility code is "0800" for the EntireX Adapter. The logging level specifies the amount of data logged. These log entries are written to the server log file.

Connections Information

This screen displays the following sections about connections and listeners.

• Broker Information
  The status of all brokers used in the connections. A green dot shows that a connection to the broker is successful. As status, the version and the operating system platform is displayed. A red dot shows that a connection to the broker is not possible. As status, the error message is displayed.

• Connections for Services
  The status of the external servers such as RPC Server, IMS Connect and CICS ECI used by the connections for adapter services. A green dot shows that connection to the RPC server is successful and the status information from the server is displayed. A red dot shows that a connection to the RPC server or to the Broker is not possible. As status, the error message is displayed. The current number of connection instances is shown in column Count.

• Connections for Listeners
  For each Listener the corresponding name of the connection, Broker ID, and server address is displayed.

Built-in Services for Connections Information

The information on connections and listeners shown on the IS Administration Console's page is available with built-in services. The following services are available in the WmEntireX package. Parameters are either input or output (I/O).

pub.wmentirex.connectioninfo:serviceList    The service retrieves the connection names. One of these names can be used as input for pub.wmentirex.connectioninfo:serviceInfo	refreshData String	I	The number of milliseconds to refresh the data. If refreshData is null or not a number, the default of 10 seconds is used.
	connections String[]	O	The array of connection names in the format folder:connection.

Support Information

Connections, adapter services and adapter listeners contain metadata that is generated during deployment of connections and services. Use the service pub.wmentirex.supportinfo:createInfo to extract this metadata for support purposes and error diagnosis.

Service	Parameter	I/O	Description
pub.wmentirex.supportinfo:createInfo    The service extracts the generated metadata from all connections and adapter services in a package and writes this to a file in the folder <IntegrationServer_instance>/packages/WmEntireX/resources.	packageName String	I	The name of a package. The generated metadata for all connections, adapter services and adapter listeners in this package is written to a file.
	result String	O	File <filename> created on host <hostname>.

Services Information

This screen shows statistics about the adapter services of the EntireX Adapter. Only services that have been executed at least once during the runtime of the Integration Server are shown.

The following information is shown for each service:

• name of the service

• corresponding program name

• number of successful calls

• number of erroneous calls

• average processing time in milliseconds (only successful calls)

• time of last access

• processing time in milliseconds for the last call

• status of last call (detailed error message if the last call failed)

Listeners Information

This screen shows statistics about the listeners of the EntireX Adapter. For each listener, all services that have been invoked at least once during the runtime of the Integration Server are shown.

The following information is shown for each service invoked by a listener:

• name of the listener

• subprogram name and service name separated by '/'

• number of successful calls

• number of erroneous calls

• average processing time in milliseconds (only successful calls)

• time of last access

• processing time in milliseconds for the last call

License Information

This screen has two parts:

• EntireX License Information

• Adabas Replication License Information

EntireX License Information

The first part of this screen shows information on the EntireX license used by the EntireX Adapter.

• Valid until: values are a date specification or "Unlimited".

• License for IMS Connect connections: "Yes" or "No".

• License for CICS ECI connections: "Yes" or "No"

• License for Direct RPC connections: "Yes" or "No".

• License for COBOL Converter connections: "Yes" or "No".

• License for AS/400 connections: "Yes" or "No".

• License for EntireX Broker connections: "Yes" or a message that indicates a possible license coverage mismatch.

• Error message (only if the license is not granted).

Notes:

1. This license file for the EntireX Adapter is always named "license.entirex.xml" and resides in directory IntegrationServer/instances/<instance_name>/config.
2. If this file does not exist and an EntireX license file is available in the same suite installation the EntireX Adapter will copy the EntireX license file during startup to the location mentioned in ⁽¹⁾.
3. You can specify the location of a license file (file name with folder) with the Change Settings link. The EntireX Adapter will copy this license file to the location mentioned in ⁽¹⁾.
4. If a license file is copied to the location mentioned in ⁽¹⁾, it is renamed to "license.entirex.xml" if necessary.

Adabas Replication License Information

The second part of this screen shows information on the Adabas Replication license used by the EntireX Adapter.

• Valid until: values are a date specification or "Unlimited".

• License for Adabas Replication connections: "Yes" or "No".

• Error message (only if the license is not granted).

Notes:

1. This license file for the EntireX Adapter is always named "license.reptor_entirex.xml" and resides in directory IntegrationServer/instances/<instance_name>/config.
2. You can specify the location of a license file (file name with folder) with the Change Settings link. The EntireX Adapter will copy this license file to the location mentioned in ⁽¹⁾.
3. If a license file is copied to the location mentioned in ⁽¹⁾, it is renamed to "license.reptor_entirex.xml" if necessary.

Application Monitoring

Application Monitoring is an EntireX feature that enables you to monitor the response times in your distributed applications, and it also enables you to monitor certain error situations. See Application Monitoring.

To enable application monitoring for Direct RPC, IMS Connect, AS/400, CICS ECI and CICS Socket Listener

1. In the administration menu of the EntireX Adapter, choose Application Monitoring.

2. In the Configuration section, enable Application Monitoring.

3. In the configuration entry Application Monitoring Data Collector ID, enter the address of the Application Monitoring Data Collector.

   The address has the format host-name:port-number, where host-name is the host on which the Application Monitoring Data Collector is running and port-number is the port number of the Application Monitoring Data Collector. The default port number is 57900.

   Caution:
   If you have a Direct RPC scenario and you change the application monitoring configuration, all involved client applications and/or RPC servers have to be restarted (because they are caching information about the Adapter's application monitoring settings).

Adabas Replication Wizards

The menu items Adabas Replication Wizard and Create Document Type from Adabas File are used by the product "Adabas Replication Service for webMethods Integration Server". For details see the documentation of this product.
