Configuring Connections in Oracle Integration Cloud
After the packages are imported and verified, the respective connections have to be configured.
This section describes the procedure to set up the following connections:
Configuring Oracle Utilities SOAP CCS for CCS-NMS
This connection is used to communicate with Oracle Utilities Customer Cloud Service using the Oracle Utilities Adapter.
To configure the Oracle Utilities SOAP CCS for CCS-NMS connection:
1. Add the Oracle Utilities Customer Cloud Service catalog to the catalogURL section.
Note:
For the on-premises application, the catalog format is:
http(s)://<C2M_HOST>:<C2M_PORT>/<ContextRoot>/rest/ouaf/openapi/iws/catalog
For Oracle Utilities Customer Cloud Service, the catalog format is: https://{host}:{port}/{tenant}/{domain}/{appName}/rest/openapi/iws/catalog
2. On the Security policy tab, select the applicable security policy to access the application.
For more information on the supported security policies, refer to the Understand the Oracle Utilities Adapter chapter in the Using the Oracle Utilities Adapter with Oracle Integration 3 documentation.
3. For Oracle Utilities Customer to Meter on-premises, configure the agent in the connection.
a. In the Agent Group section, click Configure Agents.
b. Select the agent group from the list created in Creating an Agent Group.
4. On the Connection page, enter the username and password. Click Test at the upper-right corner.
5. After the connection is tested successfully, click Save.
Configuring Oracle Utilities REST NMS for CCS-NMS
This connection is used to trigger from or invoke the Oracle Utilities Network Management System using the Oracle Utilities Adapter.
To configure the Oracle Utilities REST NMS for CCS-NMS connection:
1. Add the Oracle Utilities Network Management System catalog to the catalogURL section.
Format: https://{NMS-Host}:{NMS-Port}/nms-ofs/rest/v1/catalog
2. On the Security section, select the applicable security policy to access the application.
For more information on the supported security policies, refer to the Understand the Oracle Utilities Adapter chapter in the Using the Oracle Utilities Adapter with Oracle Integration 3 documentation.
3. When the connection is made to the Oracle Utilities Network Management System on-premises application:
a. Configure the appropriate Agent Group.
b. Select the agent group from the list created in the Creating an Agent Group procedure.
4. On the Connection page, click Test.
5. After the connection is tested successfully, click Save.
Configuring Oracle Utilities REST for CCS-NMS
This connection is used to communicate with the Global Error Handler Service using the REST adapter. It is used in the CCS-NMS Integration common error handler triggered by Oracle Utilities Customer Cloud Service.
Edit the Oracle Utilities REST Outbound for CCS-NMS connection and test it to make sure it is successful. Click Save.
Configuring Oracle Utilities NMS Multi Instance
To enable the multi-instance NMS.MultipleInstance flag from the OUTL-BRT-CCS_NMS_ConfigProps lookup must be set to ‘true’.
An additional Oracle Utilities Adapter must be created to be used whenever multi-instance is required:
1. Select the OU CCS NMS project.
2. Click + in the connection’s menu.
3. Enter “Oracle Utilities” and select the adapter to create a connection.
4. Enter the required information.
The Identifier must have the “BAEXT_” prefix. Else, it will not be created since it is an accelerator.
5. To configure the connection, add the Oracle Utilities Network Management System catalog URL.
Format: https://{NMS-Host}:{NMS-Port}/nms-ofs/rest/v1/catalog
6. On the Security section, select the applicable security policy to access the application.
For more information on the supported security policies, refer to the Understand the Oracle Utilities Adapter chapter in the Using the Oracle Utilities Adapter with Oracle Integration 3 documentation.
7. When the connection is set to the Oracle Utilities Network Management System on-premises application:
a. Configure the appropriate Agent Group.
b. Select the agent group from the list created in the Creating an Agent Group section.
8. On the Connection page, click Test.
9. After the connection is tested successfully, click Save.
After creating and configurating connection, copy the Identifier of the adapter and add it to the OUTL-BRT-CCS_NMS_INSTANCE Division lookup with the matching Identifier as the value for NMS_Site_Connection.
Configuring Oracle Utilities NMS Single Instance
For single instance, NMS.MultipleInstance flag from the OUTL-BRT-CCS_NMS_ConfigProps lookup must be set to ‘false’.
