When using a managed adapter in a BusinessManager cluster, ensure that all the files required for the adapter to function properly are present in all the cluster nodes. OE BPM Managed Adapters act as a translating module that converts the BusinessManager-specific protocol to another application-specific protocol. In BusinessManager, a Managed Adapter is a pluggable component that connects BusinessManager to an external system such as database and ERP system, or performs its own function of data transformation. Part of the functions related to the operation of the managed adapters (such as adapter configuration, input/output mapping) are handled by standardized BusinessManager components, simplifying the development process of such adapters. Currently, OE BPM offers ten Managed Adapters: DB Adapter, File Adapter, Database Adapter, File Adapter, Email Adapter, FTP Adapter , JMS Adapter, SAP Adapter, OE Adapter, Sonic ESB Adapter, Corticon Adapter, Sharepoint Adapter and Web Service Adapter. When using a managed adapter in a clustered environment, you must ensure that all the files required for the work of the adapter are present in all the cluster nodes.
