Configuring Server Tasks

---

A server task is an instantiation of a server component. To run a server task, you need to run a component request, which will request that one or more server tasks run.

The following example describes how to configure a server task for the EAI MQSeries Server Transport. The Siebel EAI MQSeries Server Transport is designed to provide a messaging solution to help you integrate data between Siebel eBusiness Applications and external applications that can interface with the IBM MQSeries. The IBM MQSeries Server Transport transports messages to and from IBM MQSeries queues.

In order to run this server task successfully you need to first configure two named subsystems.

To configure named subsystems

Start the Siebel client.
From the Application-level menu, choose View>Site Map>Server Administration Screen > Enterprise Configuration.
Click the Enterprise Profile Configuration view tab.
Create a new record in the Component Profiles list and provide the required information.
Name. Name of the named subsystem, for example ACORDMQConnSubsys
Type. Type of the named subsystem, MQSeriesServerSubsys

NOTE:  The subsystem type that you select should have a checkmark in the Is Named Enabled field.

Save the record.
In the Enterprise Profile Configuration list, modify parameters.
MqPhysicalQueueName. <Queue name from which to receive inbound request message>
MqQueueManagerName. <Name of the queue manager who owns the queues>
MqRespPhysicalQueueName. <Queue name to which to send the response message>
MqSleepTime. 100 <or longer if needed>
Save the record.
Create another Named Subsystem with the following name and parameters:
Name. Name of the named subsystem, for example ACORDMQDataSubsys
Type. EAITransportDataHandlingSubsys
Save the record.
In the Enterprise Profile Configuration list, modify the parameters.
DispatchWorkflowProcess. ACORD Server Party Package Workflow

After creating and configuring the named subsystems, you need to configure MQSeries Receiver.

To configure MQSeries Receiver

Start the Siebel client.
From the Application-level menu, choose View>Site Map>Server Administration> Server Component.
Query for MQSeries Receiver and set the following:
Receiver Connection Subsystem. ACORDMQConnSubsys <the name from step 4 in the previous procedure>
Receiver Data Handling Subsystem. ACORDMQDataSubsys <the name from step 8 in the previous procedure>
Receiver Method Name. ReceiveDispatch <or ReceiveDispatchSend>
Default Tasks. 1 <or number of tasks desired>
Restart the Siebel server and make sure that the MQSeries Receiver server component is running.

NOTE:  For details on creating and configuring server tasks, see Siebel Server Administration Guide and for details on configuring MQSeries, see Transports and Interfaces: Siebel eBusiness Application Integration Volume III.
