Creating the configuration file

  1. On the Framework Services server, locate the LBI_HOME\FS_HOME\conf directory. For example, C:\InforLawsonBI\FrameworkServices\conf\services.cfg
  2. Back up or save the services.cfg file with a new name.
  3. Using a text editor, open services.cfg. Below is the services.cfg template.
    * USED FOR DIRECT IOS CONFIGURATION WITH LAWSON SECURITY
    *
    * Configuration file for enabling LBI to use Direct IOS functionality
    
    /*Constant Parameter for LSFClientFactory. Value does not need to be modified. */
    CONTEXT_FACTORY	com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory
    
    /* See the BOOTSTRAP port on the IOS server for this value */
    SERVER_IIOP_PORT	6088
    
    /*Machine Name of the IOS Server, e.g. MyLSFServer.lawson.com */
    SERVER_NAME	MyLSFServer.MyCompany.com
    
    /*NameSpace in Websphere on the IOS server, e.g. cell/nodes/NameOfNode/servers/NameOfServer/ */
    SERVER_NAMESPACE	cell/nodes/MyServerNode01/servers/server1/
    

    You can rename this file.

  4. Add or edit these values:
    • SERVER_NAME

      The complete Infor Lawson System Foundation server machine name. Include the domain for the machine. For example, myLSFserver.mycompany.com.

    • SERVER_IIOP_PORT
      1. In the LSF WebSphere console, navigate to Server Types > WebSphere Application Servers.
      2. Select on the LSF server.
      3. Under Communications, click Ports. The BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS is the IIOP port.
    • SERVER_NAMESPACE

      Specify the WebSphere Namespace of the IOS application as:

      cell/nodes/<node_name>/servers/<server_name>/

      For example, cell/nodes/LL3A221Node01/servers/NT901/.

    You do not need to modify the CONTEXT_FACTORY value. This value must be: "com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory".

  5. Save and close the file.
