Using the BPM Configuration Screen for 10g

Contents

On the BPM Configuration screen, to configure P6 to use BPM 10g, add the following settings:

1. In the bpm.workspace.url field, enter an address in the form of http://host:port that indicates where the BPM Workspace application is hosted. Do not put a forward slash / at the end of the URL. For example: http://host:port, and not http://host:port/.

   Note: The default BPM port is 8686. The host can be an IP address or a host name such as a machine name.

2. In the bpm.directory.file field, enter the full path to the local copy of the directory.xml file that you copied from your BPM installation. The BPM 10g installation generates the file at: <BPM install dir>/conf/directory.xml.
3. In the bpm.sso.enabled field, select the option if you want to configure the form to use SSO. Configuring the form to use SSO allows users to log in without being prompted for authentication when they open a BPM form from P6.
4. Enter the following settings only if you checked bpm.sso.enabled above:
   1. In the bpm.sso.keystore.location field, enter the full path to the keystore file.
   2. In the bpm.sso.keystore.password field, enter the keystore password.
   3. In the bpm.sso.publickey.alias field, enter the alias to the public key stored in the keystore.
5. Click Next.
