Kofax Reporting Administrator's Guide

2 On the second computer, create two queue managers, each with two local queues.
3 Optionally, for convenience, add all queue managers to a single MQ Explorer.
4 Create a queue manager cluster (named e.g. REPORTINGCLUSTER). Add all queue

managers to the cluster.

5 On queue managers 2 and 3, create a cluster queue (named e.g.

REPORTING.CLUSTER.QUEUE) and set it to be shared in cluster

REPORTINGCLUSTER. It is recommended to set the default bind type to Not fixed.

6 On queue manager 1, create a client-connection channel and a server-connection channel

(with the same name).

7 Copy the file C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\Qmgrs\REPORTING!CL1!

QUEUE!MANAGER\@ipcc\AMQCLCHL.TAB from the first computer to the MQ Client

computer, C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ (assuming default installation paths).

8 On the MQ Client computer on the application site, edit

WSA Sender configuration and set the Central Queue to

REPORTING.CL1.QUEUE.MANAGER:REPORTING.CLUSTER.QUEUE.

9 On the second clustered computer, edit WSA

Receiver configuration and set the Central Queue to

REPORTING.CL2.QUEUE.MANAGER:REPORTING.CLUSTER.QUEUE for the first

instance and REPORTING.CL3.QUEUE.MANAGER:REPORTING.CLUSTER.QUEUE for

the second instance.

Configuring ESB

Enterprise service bus (ESB) is one of the possible transport options for reporting data

between application site and central reporting site. Refer to

Transport via Third-Party ESB

.

The Kofax Reporting Integration SDK includes an example integration with Sonic ESB

8.0. Refer to

Installing Integration SDK

. With default options, the sample integration

document can be found here: <programs>\Kofax\Reporting\Integration SDK

\IntegrationWithSonicESB_8.docx.

The following high-level procedure lists the main steps to perform when integrating with an

ESB.

1 Prepare the Kofax Reporting WSDL file. The WSA.wsdl is part of the

Integration SDK, in the zip file ESB8_Scripts.zip. Edit the line <soap:address

location="http://172.20.148.146:9123/sonic/reporting" /> with a text editor. Type the

URL that should be serviced by your ESB project.

2 Create a new ESB project and import the Kofax Reporting WSDL into ESB integration

tool.

3 Implement the Kofax Reporting web services interface on the ESB.

On the application site, the following web services must be implemented:
▪ BulkSend2 - Kofax Reporting API invokes this service to feed reporting information

into ESB

▪ Ping - verifies connectivity
