How To


Summary

This document explains how to install Integration Composer (ITIC) with Maximo IT 8.1 in Maximo Application Suite and how to enable it.

Steps

Maximo IT users can download the ITIC tool from the Download tools application in Maximo IT. Before you download and run the installation process, users must configure database connections to link ITIC to Maximo IT. 
Complete the following steps to enable ITIC to be used with Maximo IT:
If you are using external database without SSL outside OC cluster, refer to Define a new data source.
If you are using external database with SSL outside OC cluster, refer to Define a new data source and Connecting ITIC via SSL Connection.
To setup access to a secure database that lies inside the cluster, complete the following steps:
1.  Set up access to DB2
         Refer to Setting up external access to Db2 for the steps. 
2.  Create a JKS file
     a. Open OC CLI and generate .pem file using the following command and move to your local VM
           oc get secret -n db2u db2u-ca -o jsonpath="{.data.ca\.crt}" | base64 -d > /tmp/db2-ca.pem
     b. Open cmd at server. Example: “C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\wlserver\server\lib”
     c. Copy your certificate (.pem) file at same path
     d. Create a keystore
         
           keytool -genkeypair -keystore <keystorename>
           Refer to this link for more details.
     e. Import certificate to existing keystore/jks
           keytool -importcert -file db2-ca.pem -alias <Alias name> -keystore <Keystore Name> -storepass password -storetype jks
3.  Install ITIC in Maximo IT. 
         Refer to Installing Integration composer for install steps. 
         When prompted to enter a Database server name, use the JDBC url. For example:
 jdbc string:jdbc:db2://db2-manage-route-db2u.apps.openshiftqa2.icdlab.com:443/BLUDB:sslTrustStoreLocation=C:\\Program Files\\IBM\\<Keystore Name>;sslTrustStorePassword=<password>;
4.  Enable SSL connection with ITIC
         Refer to Connecting ITIC via SSL Connection for the steps. 
5.  ITIC is now integrated with Maximo IT.
