To edit the connection information for an external process:
In the left pane of Process Administrator, select External Processes.
On the External Processes page, under Directory Service Name, select the Name of the directory service for the process execution engine on which the external process resides.
On the External Processes | Edit External Process processname page, select the Number for that corresponds to the process for which the connection information needs to be changed.
On the External Processes | Edit External Process processname | Edit External Process 'n' page, where n represents the creation number of the external process, edit the Properties needed to establish the connection with the external process:
The Process field should contain the name of the external process.
The URL field should contain a URL in following format:
standalone: http://host:IPCport#/fuego where host is the name of the computer on which the process execution engine for the external process resides, the IPC port # is the port configured on the Engines | Services tab of the process execution engine on which the external process is deployed, and /fuego is a mandatory element of the URL.
J2EE: http://host:app_server_listening_port/fuegoServices/b2b
The User and Password fields should contain the case-sensitive administrator user name and password used to log onto Process Administrator. If there is not a password set, enter a few characters so that this field is not blank.
Click Save.
Re-start both process executions engines (the one calling the external process and the one on which the external process resides).
Note: In order for the process execution engine to be able to use the external process configurations, the IPC port must be configured and enabled on the Engines | Services tab of the process execution engine on which the external process is deployed.
Note: If the external process must reconnect to the calling process after it is finished processing, such as through Subflow, Termination Wait, or Process Notification activities, the process execution engine for the external process must have its own external process configured to reach the calling process.
