IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway service provider

The IMS SOAP Gateway Service Provider page is included in the wizard pages when the selected host runtime is IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway and the selected application mode is Service Provider in the wizard launch pad.

This page allows you to specify options for the IMS Correlator file.

IMS Correlator file

The IMS Correlator file tab allows you to specify the service identification properties and the IMS system interaction properties for the new Web service.

This tab contains the following fields:

  • In the Specify service identification properties group:
    Note: Generate to: Is only applicable to single service Enterprise Service Tools projects.
    Generate to:
    Same project

    Select this when the file container is on the local system (default).

    Remote location

    Select this when the file container is on a remote system. For additional information, see Generation of Enterprise Service Tools artifacts to remote systems.

    SOAPAction
    Type the value that you want to use for the SOAPAction attribute of the soap:operation element in the WSDL file that the wizard generates for the Web service.
    This value also becomes the name of the correlator file that the wizard generates - see the File name field.
    This value must begin with urn: and must contain only characters that are valid in file names.
    File container
    Type or the select the path of the folder in which you want the wizard to generate the IMS correlator file.
    File name
    This field displays the name of the IMS correlator file that the wizard is to generate. You can modify this field by changing the name in the SOAPAction field.
    Update, Overwrite
    These radio buttons are enabled to update or overwrite the IMS correlator file that you specified in the File container and File name fields:
    • Select Update if you want the wizard to do the following:
      1. Preserve all the existing entries in the IMS correlator file; and
      2. Add or update information for the current Web service and operation on the WSDL and XSD tab of the Generation Options page of the wizard.
    • Select Overwrite if you want the wizard to overwrite the existing IMS correlator file.
    Entries in the IMS correlator file are identified by a combination of the Web service name and the operation name. If you specify a Web service name and an operation name that already exist in the IMS correlator file, then the wizard initializes the request and response schema properties on this page with the values from the IMS correlator file.
  • In the Specify IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway and IMS Connect interaction properties group:

    Transaction code
    Type the name of the IMS transaction that is to be invoked by the Web service.
    This name must be alphanumeric and must contain 8 characters or less.
    Inbound connection bundle
    Type the name of the connection bundle that the Web service uses to connect to IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway.
    Connection bundles are defined in the connection specification XML file maintained by the IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway and can be updated using the IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway deployment tool
    This name must be alphanumeric.
    Socket timeout
    Type the number of milliseconds that the IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway should wait for a response from IMS Connect.
    Execution timeout
    Type the number of milliseconds that IMS Connect should wait for a response from the IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway.
    The maximum valid value is 3600000.
    LTERM name
    Type the LTERM name that is to be used to override the value in the LTERM field of the IMS application program's I/O PCB.
    You can set the value of this property if the client application wants to provide an LTERM override name. This name is in the IMS application program's I/O PCB, with the intent that the IMS application makes logic decisions based on the override value.
    This name must be alphanumeric and must contain 8 characters or less.
    Inbound WS-Security
    Select the security token type that IMS Enterprise Suite SOAP Gateway will expect from users.
