Starting Send Master

You can start Send Master from the Integration Broker SDK or as a stand-alone version.

Note: The starting size of Send Master is 50 megabytes (MB) and Send Master starts showing issues with startup if other heavy processes like Oracle, eclipse or JDeveloper are running.

The location of Send Master in the Integration Broker SDK depends on the on web server:

  • For Oracle WebLogic the location is <PIA_HOME>\webserv<DOMAIN>\piabin

  • For IBM WebSphere the location is <PIA_HOME>\webserv\<BIN>.

The name of the Send Master startup script on Windows is StartSendMaster.bat; the name of the script on UNIX is StartSendMaster.sh.

The standalone version of Send Master is located in the <PS_HOME>\Sendmaster folder, and is named StartSendMaster.bat. If you attempt to launch the batch file and Send Master does not open, you most likely need to set PS_HOME in the environment variables on your machine.

To set PS_HOME in the environment variables:

  1. Close any DOS windows that might be open.

  2. Right-click My Computer and click Properties.

    The System Properties dialog appears.

  3. Click the Advanced tab.

  4. In the Environment Variables section, click Environment Variables.

  5. In the User variables for <user name> section, click New.

    A New User Variable dialog box appears.

  6. In the Variable Name field enter PS_HOME.

  7. In the Variable Value field, enter the path to your <PS_HOME> directory (for example, c:\PT853).

  8. Click OK.

    The PS_HOME variable name and value appears in the User variables for <user name> section.

  9. Click OK again and navigate to the standalone version of Send Master and double-click the StartSendMaster.bat file.

PeopleSoft Integration Broker introduced its services-oriented architecture in PeopleTools 8.48.

You can use Send Master to test integrations created with the pre-PeopleTools 8.48 framework (PeopleTools 8.47 and earlier releases). To set Send Master for PeopleTools releases prior to PeopleTools 8.48, launch StartSendMaster.bat from the command line with 847 as the argument.

For example: 

StartSendMaster.bat 847
