Managing event delivery About this task With WebSphere Partner Gateway, you can choose to publish system-generated events to an application (for example, a monitoring application). You publish these events to a JMS queue. From the Event Publishing Properties page, you can view the status of event publishing and the associated JMS configuration (if one exists), or you can change the status. Note: On some Windows versions (prior to XP), you might have to change the default values of the JMS Queue Factory Name and the JMS Queue Name if you want to use the default Event Delivery feature. You must change the value for JMS Queue Factory Name from WBIC/QCF to WBIC\\QCF and the value for JMS Queue Name from jms/bcg/queue/deliveryQ to jms\\bcg\\queue\\deliveryQ. To activate event publishing, follow these steps: 1. Click System Administration > Event Processing > Event Delivery Information. 2. In the Event Publishing Properties window, click the Edit icon next to Enable Event Publication. Then enter or change the values for the JMS properties. See the WebSphere Partner Gateway Hub Configuration Guide for the property descriptions. 3. Click Save. Managing API calls About this task Partners can make application programming interface (API) calls (instead of using the Community Console) to perform certain tasks. To change the setting of the administration API, follow these steps: 1. Click System Administration > Feature Administration > Administration API. 2. On the Administration API Properties window, click the Edit icon next to Enable the XML Based API. 3. Select the check box to enable the use of the API, or clear the check box to disable the use of the API. 4. Click Save. Note: The XML-based administrative API is deprecated. The migration utility that is introduced by WebSphere Partner Gateway can be used instead of the administrative API to perform the creation and update tasks. Creation and update tasks formerly only performed using the administrative API can now be performed by using a migration import file that has the new or updated information. The import file is described by the XML schema that is provided with the migration utility. You can use a development tool such as Rational Application Developer to produce an import XML file that conforms to the schema. By importing this file with the migration utility, you can load new partner definitions including contacts and business IDs for the partners. You can also update existing partner definitions by importing them with the migration utility. With the 34 IBM WebSphere Partner Gateway Enterprise and Advanced Editions: Administration Guide
