Understanding Minimum Configuration Requirements for the Integration Network

The Configuration Status page indicates if the integration network is minimally configured to run. The following table lists the minimum configuration requirements for the network.

Note:

All nodes to be managed and monitored in the Integration Network must be PeopleSoft nodes. PeopleSoft nodes are those nodes defined as PIA node types in the node definition.

  • Define a local gateway. This gateway represents the source system.

    • In the definition you must specify a gateway URL and specify that the gateway is local.

    • Load the target connectors.

  • Define one or more remote gateways. These gateways represent the target systems.

    • In each remote gateway definition you must specify the URL of the remote gateway.

    • Load the target connector for each gateway.

Register and configure PeopleSoft nodes on the local gateway.

You must first create local and remote node definitions before you can register and configured them on the local gateway.

Default Local Node:

  • Rename or define the local default node. This node represents the source system.

  • Activate the default local node.

Remote Nodes:

  • Define remote nodes as warranted. The remote nodes represent target systems.

  • Activate the nodes.

  • Assign the nodes to a gateway.

After you create local and remote node definitions, you must register and configure them on the gateway using the PeopleSoft Node Configuration page.
