Creating a Physical Agent

The Oracle Data Integrator agent is a Java application that can be placed as a listener on a TCP/IP port to handle the communication between the ERP Integrator and the Oracle Data Integrator components. The next step in the configuration is to use Topology Manager to create an agent.

  To create a physical agent:

  1. In Topology Manager, select the Physical Architecture tab.

  2. Right-click Agents, then select a Insert Agent.

  3. Enter the server name, host, and port. Save this information, since this is required when you set up the source system in ERP Integrator.

  4. Click OK.

  5. Refer to the Oracle Data Integrator installation documentation for configuring and running the agent as a Windows service or background process in UNIX.

  6. Next, import scenarios. See Importing Scenarios.
