Adding a UDDI Federation to the Federation List
After you have created the configuration file for a UDDI federation, you can make the federation available for triggering by adding it to the list of target registries defined for federation. To do this, use a command of the following form:
CentraSiteCommand add Federation [-user <USER-ID>] [-password <PASSWORD>]
-name <NAME> -file <CONFIG-FILE>
The following table describes the complete set of input parameters that you can use with the add Federation utility:
Parameter | Description |
-user | The user ID of a user on the target machine who has the permissions to create objects on the target machine. |
-password | The password of the user identified by the parameter -user. |
-name | A name for the federation. |
-file | The absolute or relative path to the XML configuration file. If relative, the path should be relative to the location from where the command is executed. |
For example:
CentraSiteCommand add Federation -user AdminUser -password ABCXYZ123
-name FedName -file C:\Federation1.xml
If the configuration file contains the user and password information in the targetRegistryDetail NAME, you can omit these from the command line. If you supply the user and password values on the command line and also in the configuration file, the values on the command line will be used.
Every federation has a dedicated name that you can provide in the Name parameter. This name is displayed when you use the list Federation command to show the list of target registries defined for federation. It is also required when you wish to remove a federation using the remove Federation command.
When the federation has been added to the federation list, you can trigger the federation at any time.
When you add a UDDI federation as described above, CentraSite creates an entry for the federation in the emit.xml file.
