Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Application Server:
Administration

Importing the OpenEdge service type definition (Optional)

If you installed OpenEdge on the machine that hosts Sonic ESB and responded appropriately to the installation prompts, skip this procedure; the OpenEdge installation program automatically performs this operation.

You can use either the graphical Sonic ESB Explorer or the command-line ESB Admin Tool to import the service type definition. Either of the procedures that follow adds the OpenEdge service type to the Sonic ESB Directory Service, making it possible to install and deploy AppServer applications as services in the Sonic ESB environment.

To import the OpenEdge service type with the Sonic ESB Explorer:

Start the SonicMQ container that is to host OpenEdge services. Typically this is the default container, SonicMQ Container1.
On the Management Console menu bar, select Tools and then Sonic ESB Explorer.
In the left pane of the Sonic ESB Explorer window, click the Services folder.
In the right pane, click the Import button. The Import Service Type window, a standard file browser, appears.
Browse to the OpenEdgeSrvType.xml file and select it. If you completed the manual setup procedure as instructed, the path is esbadapter\config\OpenEdgeSrvType.xml below the top-level Sonic ESB directory.
With the OpenEdgeSrvType.xml file selected, click Open. You return to the Sonic ESB Explorer window, which now shows OpenEdge Services in the Service Type Name field, as shown:



Click the Apply button to complete the import process. You now see OpenEdge Services in the list of service types.

To import the OpenEdge service type with the ESB Admin Tool:

Start the SonicMQ container that is to host OpenEdge services. Typically this is the default container, SonicMQ Container1.
Launch the ESB Admin Tool (available in the Sonic ESB program group on the Windows Start menu).
At the ESB Admin Tool command prompt, type the following command to connect to the broker:

connect Domain1 tcp://localhost:2506

Type the following command at the ESB Admin Tool command prompt:

import serviceType Sonic ESB-Install-Directory/esbadapter/config/ OpenEdgeSrvType.xml

Where SonicESB-Install-Directory is the top-level directory in which Sonic ESB is installed.
