Table 2-4 describes the directories used by the WebSphere MQ adapter.

Table 2-4 Directories

File Description
logs The adapter activity is logged in subdirectories of the logs directory. Subdirectory names take the following form:

timestamp_in_milliseconds

Each time the adapter is run, a new subdirectory is created for the oailog.txt log file.

persistence The messages are made available in this directory. Do not edit this directory or its files.

2.2.1 Using the Application Parameter

Adapters do not have integration logic. The WebSphere MQ adapter has a generic transformation engine that uses metadata from the repository as runtime instructions to perform transformations. The application parameter defines the capabilities of an adapter, such as the messages to be published and subscribed, and the transformations to be performed. The application parameter allows the adapter to retrieve only the relevant metadata from the repository. The application parameter must match the corresponding application name that will be defined in iStudio under the Applications folder.

If you use prepackaged metadata, then import it into the repository and start iStudio to find the corresponding application under the Applications folder. You can use this as the application name for the adapter you are installing.

2.2.2 Ini File Settings

The following are the .ini files used to configure the WebSphere MQ adapter:

2.2.2.1 hub.ini Parameters

The WebSphere MQ adapter connects to the hub database using parameters in the hub.ini file located in the hub directory. Table 2-5 lists the parameter names, descriptions for each parameter, and an example.
