Interfaces for Administration

There are various administrative interfaces for an Adapter-Framework-compliant adapter.

• Starting and stopping adapter instances

  AS Java informs the adapter when it is started or stopped.

  You must implement a Java interface in the adapter.

• A system administrator can monitor the status of the communication channels by using the communication channel monitor. The system administrator also gets runtime information about the adapter in the communication channels.

  You can start and stop communication channels in the monitor.

  It is possible to trigger the alert framework for certain status messages.

• In the communication channel monitor you can send a ping to the relevant channel and test the adapter in the channel.
