Federating IBM BPM systems
To include an IBM® BPM system in a federated environment, you must configure both the IBM BPM system and Process Federation Server.
- Enabling indexing on a federated IBM BPM system
The distributed Process Federation Server index enables process participants to see a consolidated list of both BPD- and BPEL-related tasks from all the IBM BPM systems in the federated environment. For data from a federated IBM BPM system to appear in the index, you must enable indexing on the system. - Adding an IBM BPM system to the federated environment
The server.xml template file that is provided with Process Federation Server contains sample elements that you can use as the basis for adding an IBM BPM system to the federated environment. - Importing saved searches from federated IBM BPM systems into Process Federation Server
With Process Federation Server Saved Search Transfer REST API, you can now export saved searches from federated IBM BPM systems and import them into Process Federation Server. - Maintaining IBM BPM systems in federated environments
Federated environments consist of Process Federation Server and multiple federated IBM BPM systems. Use properties in the Process Federation Server server.xml configuration file to configure an IBM BPM system for the federated environment and configure and maintain the indexing service for the system. - Configuration properties for federated IBM BPM systems
The server.xml configuration file on Process Federation Server contains properties for each IBM BPM system in the federated environment and its associated index.
