Installing the FTM user defined nodes on the toolkit

Before you can use the FTM user defined nodes (for example: Standards Processing node, FlowManager Shutdown node, WebSphere® Decision Service Node) in sample message flows provided by FTM, you must carry out the following steps to install it on the IBM® Integration Toolkit:
  1. Log on to the toolkit workstation.
  2. Create a temporary directory.
  3. Transfer the following archive file from the host machine to the temporary directory:
    instdir/multiplatform/FXH_Core_Plugins_WMB.zip
  4. Extract the files contained in the archive file.
  5. Extract and copy the plug-in JAR files to the toolkit dropins directory. For IBM Integration Toolkit V9.0 on the Windows operating system, the default toolkit dropins directory is:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\IntegrationToolkit90\dropins
    If the dropins directory does not yet exist within the toolkit installation directory, you have to create it.
  6. Run the mb -clean -initialize command from the IBM Integration Console to pick up the new files.
    Note: When you start the Integration Toolkit immediately after running this command, it will take longer than normal to start up.
