Task: configure the IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender with Launcher

Procedure

  1. The Launcher Administration application defines the Launcher startup parameters, valid deployment directories and access privileges. Access the Launcher Administration by selecting Launcher Administration from the IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender Start menu link. This may be on the Launcher submenu, depending upon how the product was installed.
  2. On the General tab, disable Automatic Startup to allow the system to be started manually in the Management Console. Make sure that Separate Launcher Process is unchecked. Checking this box will cause the tutorial to fail.
  3. Identify the Resource Configuration file for the Launcher by selecting Resource.mrc under C:\install_dir\tmgr_vn.n\mmgr\ as the Resource Configuration File.
  4. On the Deployment Directories tab, ensure that C:\install_dir\systems (where you deployed the Message Manager system) is specified as a deployment directory.
  5. Create an account that will allow you to monitor and control the Launcher in the Access tab by clicking Add then entering a User Name (your name), Login Name (your initials), and Password (letmein)
  6. Change the Access Rights from Revoke to Grant for all actions.
  7. Click OK to exit out of the Launcher Administration tool.
