Configuring Integration Objects for ADM Deployment

This topic is part of About Siebel ADM Configurations for New Data Types.

Many Application Deployment Manager (ADM) data types have hierarchical structures of different objects that consist of parent-child relationships. In some cases, you might want to control how these hierarchies are deployed by removing the child entities from ADM deployments.

For example, the responsibility data type also migrates users as well as responsibilities, because responsibilities are associated with users and these users would need to be included with the responsibility. However, in this example, you might not want to migrate users between environments, because this migration deploys development users to a production environment.

To deploy only parent records of hierarchical relationships, you must disable the child integration component of the respective data type integration object. Perform the following procedure to configure this behavior.

Intermediate-level knowledge of the Siebel EAI architecture and integration is a prerequisite before performing these tasks. For more information about Siebel EAI, see Overview: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration.

For more information about using the synchronization wizard and configuring integration objects, see Integration Platform Technologies: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration.

To configure an integration object for ADM deployment

  1. Start Siebel Tools or Siebel Web Tools.

  2. Create a new workspace.

  3. Select the integration object that you want to update.

  4. Click Synchronize in the Integration Objects list.

    The Integration Object Synchronize wizard appears.

  5. Click the plus sign (+) to list all related integration components.

  6. Select the checkboxes next to the integration components that you want to include in the integration object. Clear the checkboxes next to the integration components that you do not want to include (such as to disable a child integration component that you do not want to migrate).

  7. Complete the wizard, and click Finish to synchronize the Siebel integration object and the Siebel business object.

  8. Right-click the integration object, and select Validate to validate the integration object.
