Run-time Steps

You run an ebXML Protocol Manager Project using the Logical Host. Running a Project requires the following basic steps:

• Starting and running the Logical Hosts

• Making sure your TPs have been activated

• Supplying input data

• Checking output data

• Making sure all client Projects and eXchange deployments deployed successfully

You can check the output data either by checking the configured output file directory or using the eXchange Message Tracking feature, whichever is appropriate. For more information on Message Tracking, see Using Message Tracking.

You can use Enterprise Designer to make changes to a Project while it is running. See Applying Changes Without Shutting Down Logical Host for details.

Once you do these steps, your Project is active, and you are ready to send and receive data. For detailed information on these steps, see the sample scenario provided with ebXML Protocol Manager and supplied with the installation CD-ROM, as explained in Run-time Steps.
