Introduction
The IBM WebSphere Adapter for Siebel enterprise supports exchange of data with the Siebel EIS through two types of Siebel objects – Siebel business services and Siebel business objects. This guide provides tutorial scenarios that demonstrate how the adapter performs outbound and inbound operations using Siebel business services and business components.
1 1.1 Learning Objectives
After completing a tutorial, you should be able to perform the following tasks:
• Create an adapter project in WebSphere Integration Developer.
• Discover services and associated business objects from the enterprise information system (EIS) and make them part of the adapter project.
• Create a deployable module that you install on WebSphere Process Server or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
• Test the module and validate the results.
2 1.2 Audience
These tutorials are for integration developers who design, assemble, test, and deploy business integration solutions.
3 1.3 Software prerequisites
To use these tutorials, you must have the following applications installed:
WebSphere Integration Developer, version 6.1
WebSphere Process Server or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, version 6.1
Siebel 7.8 or 8.0 driver
1.4 Scenarios in brief:
There are four scenarios in total:
i) Outbound using Siebel business service
ii) Inbound using Integration Object
iii) Outbound using Siebel business object
iv) Inbound using Siebel business object
The table in each scenario below provides the details of the Siebel’s Integration or Business Object and the operations to be performed on it.
1.4.1 Outbound using Siebel business service
|Business Service |Siebel Account |
|Integration Object |Account Interface |
|Event MethodsOperations |Insert (Tutorial 1) |
| |QueryByExample (Tutorial 2) |
There will be two operations in this scenario, in order: ‘Insert’ and ‘QueryByExample’. The ‘Insert’ operation will be used to add a hierarchy of instances of the integration object ‘Account Interface’ to the Siebel EIS, using the Siebel business service, ‘Siebel Account’. The ‘QueryByExample’ operation will retrieve the created ‘Account Interface’ instance from the Siebel EIS.
1.4.2 Inbound using Siebel Integration object
|Integration Object |Account Interface |
|Event MethodOperation |QueryByExample (Tutorial 3) |
This scenario includes updating a hierarchy of instances of ‘Account Interface’ (not through adapter) in the EIS. There will be an event added automatically (through Siebel script) to the event component for the corresponding update. The adapter will poll the event from the event component & retrieve the updated instance hierarchy based on the information available in the event.
1.4.3 Outbound using Siebel business object
|Business Object |Account – ESP |
|Event MethodOperations |Create (Tutorial 4) |
| |Exists (Tutorial 5) |
There will be two operations in this scenario, in order: ‘Create’ and ‘Exists’. The ‘Create’ operation will be used to add a hierarchy of instances of the business object ‘Account - ESP’ to the Siebel EIS. The ‘Exists’ operation will confirm that a particular ‘Account’ instance exists in the Siebel EIS.
1.4.4 Inbound using Siebel business object
|Business Object |Account – ESP |
|Event MethodOperation |Retrieve (Tutorial 6) |
This scenario will include retrieving a hierarchy of updated instances of ‘Account - ESP’. An event will be added automatically (through Siebel script triggers) to the event component when the corresponding update happens. The adapter will poll the event from the event component & retrieve the updated instances based on the information available in the event.
.
Note: For the inbound scenarios, it is necessary to set up the event component in the Siebel EIS. For more information, refer the adapter user guide.
Preparing to run through the tutorials
1 Extracting the sample files
Replicas of the artifacts that you create when using the external service wizard are provided as sample files for your reference. Use these files to verify that the files you create with the external service wizard are correct. The samples folder will have another sub-folder ‘referencefiles’ – this will have the sample project interchange files containing the artifacts generated as part of the tutorials – this can be used for comparison purposes whenever you run the tutorials and generate your own artifacts.
The names of the replica files for the six tutorials are Tutorial1.zip, Tutorial2.zip, Tutorial3.zip, Tutorial4.zip, Tutorial5.zip and Tutorial6.zip – all can be found under ‘./samples/referencefiles’. These files can be extracted into the WID and the artifacts used for reference purposes. The apps and Siebel scripts accompany each sample scenarios of the tutorial.
2 Creating the authentication alias
Using an authentication alias eliminates the need to store the password in clear text in an adapter configuration property, where it might be visible to others. The authentication alias needs to be set since the adapter uses the username/password to connect to the database. Here are the steps to set the authentication alias in WPS admin console. This authentication alias will be used later when generating the artifacts for the module.
1. In WebSphere Integration Developer, switch to the Servers View by selecting Windows > Show View > Servers.
[pic]
[pic]
Figure 1: Choose Servers’ View
2. To set the authentication alias, we need to start the server. In the Servers tab in the lower-right pane of the WebSphere Integration Developer screen, right-click on the server, and then select Start. If a new server entry needs to be added, right-click on the blank space in the Servers’ view and choose ‘New’.
3. When the server status is “Started”, right-click on the server, and then select “Run administrative console”.
4. Log in to the administrative console by clicking the “Log in” button. The User ID is optional and is meant for recalling the session configuration settings.
5. In the administrative console, click Security → Secure administration, applications, and infrastructure. Under Authentication, click Java Authentication and Authorization Service → J2C Authentication data.
[pic]
Figure 2: Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS)
a. In the list of J2C authentication aliases that is displayed, click New.
b. In the Configuration tab, type the name of the authentication alias in the Alias field.
c. Type the user ID and password that are required to establish a connection to the database.
d. Optionally type a description of the alias.
e. Click OK. The newly created alias is displayed. Note the full name of the alias, which includes the node name. This full name will be used in subsequent configuration windows.
f. Click Save.

6 Configuring the adapter properties
The properties have already been configured earlier at the time of generation of the business objects and artifacts. If there are any configuration changes needed, the same can be done using the Assembly Editor.
➢ In the ‘Business Integration’ perspective, open the assembly diagram under the project and select the SiebelOutboundInterface import.
➢ Right-click and select ‘Show In Properties’ to display the ‘Properties’ view and click on the ‘Binding’ tab under it.
➢ Select the different tabs – ‘Connection’, ‘ResourceAdapter’ as needed to configure any of the corresponding properties e.g. ‘Managed Connection Factory’, ‘Authentication’ etc.
[pic]
Figure 2321: Assembly diagram
➢ Save the project when done with the changes.
Note: Select the assembly diagram window before saving i.e. one that has the ‘SiebelOutboundInterface’ and save the project. It is important to select the window else the changes cannot be saved.
7 Deploying the adapter project to the test environment
The result of running the External Service wizard is an SCA module that contains an EIS import. Install this SCA module in the WebSphere Integration Developer integration test client.
➢ Add the SCA module you created earlier to the server using the Servers View in WebSphere Integration Developer. Right-click on the server, and then select Add and remove projects.
➢ Select the project in the ‘Available Projects’ view. Click ‘Add’ button. It should get added to the ‘Configured Projects’ pane on the right hand side.
➢ Click ‘Finish’
➢ The SCA module will be installed and started on the server.
Note: If there are any problems installing the application using the above approach, you can export the project into an EAR, install and start the same through the WPS admin console. For more information on how to do the same, check out the troubleshooting sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3.
8 Testing the adapter application
The adapter application will be tested using the WebSphere Integration Developer integration test client. The following subsections will provide information on how to execute the two operations, ‘Insert’ and ‘QueryByExample’, against the business service ‘Siebel Account’.
1 Execution of ‘Insert’ operation
➢ In the ‘Business Integration’ profile, select the module, right-click on it and select Test > Test Module.

➢ Confirm that the application has been started successfully – a message will be provided at the top of the window and also the ‘Status’ against the application will change from [pic] to [pic]
3 Create Record Failed
In an outbound scenario which requires a business object to be created, the id is not required as input value because it’s automatically generated. Another possible cause would be creating a duplicate record; hence, a DuplicateRecordException will be thrown.
Appendix
1 Clearing the tutorial content
8.1.1 Business service ‘Siebel Account’ – ‘Insert’ operation
You should have noted down the ‘AccountID’ generated earlier against the business service ‘Insert’ operation (Section 5.1.8.1). Using Siebel client, you can delete the corresponding ‘Account’ record.
8.1.2 Business Service ‘Siebel Account’ - ‘QueryByExample’ operation
Not applicable. The ‘QueryByExample’ operation (Section 5.1.8.2) just retrieves an existing record and does not create or update any sample content in the Siebel EIS.
8.1.3 Business Object ‘Account – ESP’ - ‘Create’ operation
You should have noted down the ‘ID’ generated earlier against the business service ‘Create’ operation (Section 5.2.8.1). Using Siebel client, you can delete the corresponding ‘Account’ record.
8.1.4 Business Object ‘Account – ESP’ - ‘Exists’ operation
Not applicable. The ‘Exists’ operation (Section 5.2.8.2) just checks for the existence of a record and does not create or update any sample content in the Siebel EIS.
