Creating a Broadcast Routing Channel

Use of Sterling File Gateway is not strictly limited to the selections provided in this procedure. To simplify your initial use of broadcast with Sterling File Gateway, some suggested selections are provided.

Before you begin

An Integration Architect must create a routing channel template configured for broadcasting before a Route Provisioner can create a broadcast routing channel.

About this task

To create a routing channel for use to broadcast messages to a list of consumers:

Procedure

  1. Select Routes > Channels.
  2. Click Create.
  3. For Routing Channel Template, select one created for broadcasting, for example, DynamicBroadcastFromFact.
  4. For Producer, select the partner that will send the file.
  5. For 'name of SFG Partner Group Defining Broadcast List', enter the name of an Sterling File Gateway Partner Group whose members will make up the broadcast list.
    Restriction: The example routing channel template, DynamicBroadcastFromFact, defines a provisioning fact 'name of SFG Partner Group Defining Broadcast List'. If you create a different routing channel template, you can use a different fact name.
