Chapter 4. Installing and setting up vendor.connect 
105
4.2.12  Testing the vendor.connect Web site
You are now in a position to test the Web application. Launch Internet Explorer and enter the 
following URL:
http://<iSeries>/VendorConnect/logon.jsp
4.2.13  Backing up the configuration components
If all is well, you should back up the configured components, so that they can be restored in 
case of any emergency. Several folders must be saved (see the list of components to install in 
4.2, “Installing vendor.connect” on page 74). 
The following command shows how to back up the AEF and VendorConnect folders. You 
need to extend the command to include all folders:
SAV DEV('/qsys.lib/tap01.devd') OBJ(('/AEF') ('/VendorConnect'))
4.3  Changing the iSeries on which the application is running
If you want to change the iSeries on which the vendor.connect application is running, change 
the following files. You also need to change these files if you want to change the iSeries 
username or password:
򐂰
/AEF/controller.properties
򐂰
/AEF/standard.properties
򐂰
/AEF/TriggerHandler.properties
򐂰
/VendorConnect/deployed/ConnectorManager.xml
򐂰
/VendorConnect/deployed/ejb_default.cfg
򐂰
/VendorConnect/deployed/SecurityManager.xml
򐂰
/VendorConnect/deployed/standard.properties
You must also change the database trigger rules folder name and maps folder name in the 
/com.geac.erp.system21.aef/xml/rules and /com.geac.erp.system21.aef/xml/maps folders. 
Also, go to the WebSphere Administrator’s Console, click the jt400BTT data source name, 
and change the database name to the new iSeries ID.
You should also change the first two files above if you change your MQSeries setup (for 
example, change the default queue manager name, or change the queue/channel names).
4.4  Housekeeping
Once vendor.connect is running, it requires little housekeeping. However, you may want to 
consider the items that are explained in the following sections.
4.4.1  Daily
Back up the System21 files libraries as usual, including library OSLVCF3. 
4.4.2  Stopping
This section offers helpful information for situations where the iSeries is powered down or you 
want to stop and start WebSphere overnight.
