Working with the Repository
The following sections describe the WebLogic Integration repository:
Understanding the Repository
The WebLogic Integration repository is the database that stores the information required by WebLogic Integration. The repository consists of:
B2B Configuration Elements
The following two figures show the relationships among the B2B configuration elements in the repository. For information about configuring the repository data elements, see Configuration Requirements.
Figure 6-1 Elements in the Repository (Part 1)
The following figure is a continuation of the previous figure. Figure 6-2 Elements in the Repository (Part 2)
In the figures, solid lines represent inclusion and dashed lines represent reference. When you remove an element from the repository, the following events occur:
For example, if you remove a transport, the transport's end point is also removed but the referenced client certificate remains.
The following table provides an overview of the elements in the repository.
Table 6-1 Elements in the Repository
Managing the B2B Configuration Information in the Repository
The following figure illustrates the methods you can use to manage the information in the repository.
Figure 6-3 Managing the Information in the Repository
As this figure illustrates, when you update information through the B2B Console or a custom management application, the repository is accessed by means of the MBeans API. The Bulk Loader employs a low-level API to handle database operations. The MBeans API enables you to update the repository dynamically at run time. That is, database updates can occur while the B2B engine is running. The Bulk Loader, on the other hand, requires B2B engine shutdown. Additional information about each of these methods of updating the B2B configuration elements stored in the repository can be found in the following documents:
