LDI Event Processing (Luminis IV)

Thu, 2007-07-19 17:27 — gsmith

Followed steps on setting up UDC integration on Luminis IV. Successfully connected to SSB from Luminis and changed my PIN. I see the LDIPERSON event in the Banner GOBEQRC table but don't know what other configurations are required to retreive the event from Banner.

The SCT.event.* properties are set
messaging.datapipeline.client.cp$cpentityevent.enabled=true
messaging.datapipeline.client.cp$cpincoming.enabled=true

The installation guide references a ldi_banner.properties file but I didn't find it in in the $CP_ROOT/webapps/luminis/WEB-INF/config directory. Is this required?

What else am I missing?

Did you install the LDI components?

Did you install the LDI components? this includes two pieces (Luminis Message Broker which should install with IV, and the Luminis Message Gateway, which is a separate install). LMB and LMG are required with Banner 7 and Luminis IV integration, as they act as the middlemen in the data communication between Banner, Luminis and other third-party applications.

I put all my steps into a

I put all my steps into a script, along with echo reminders for stuff that I didn't want to bother to automate:

We have our LMG/LMB on one box. This was also designed so that we didn't have to use a separate user for the LMG process (as it requires a different java version than Luminis IV).

echo "SCT_LMG_HOME var must be set in luma .profile"
echo "Grab the j2sdk java setup and install it in the /mnt/portal/lmg"
echo "Sourcing cprc"
. /mnt/portal/.cprc
echo "Setting SCT_LMG_HOME"
SCT_LMG_HOME=/mnt/portal/lmg; export SCT_LMG_HOME
echo "Running the lmg4.0.jar file"
/mnt/portal/lmg/j2sdk1.4.2_15/bin/java -jar $SCT_LMG_HOME/lmg4.0.jar -erp banner -lmbhost vmpt1.pcc.edu -dburl someserver.pcc.edu:1521:

echo "Setting messaging.datapipeline.client.cp\$cpincoming.enabled to true"
configman -s messaging.datapipeline.client.cp\$cpincoming.enabled true
echo "Don't forget to change the ldap port from 389 to 636 in event_providers.plist"
echo "Change the java exe path in the startevents file"

All set now

We didn't have LMG configured correctly. Thanks for the tip.

LDI Newbie

With all the luminis hacking I've done, I've never entered the realm of LDI.
I have a few questions to see if this will actually improve my life it it is installed.

The concept I would like to achieve is to have Banner control the creation of users and roles in Luminis. I'm guessing that's what this does. However, after looking at the docs on the support site, it looks like the LMG (luminis message gateway as mentioned above) is being deemed Learning Management Gateway.

Needless to say having never done this I don't want to screw up by installing some learning gateway (WebCT integration I'm presuming) when we don't use/need it.

So with all of that - with a new Luminis IV installation, what do I need to have banner feed luminis account create / change information?

LMG and Learning Management

  1. Yes, it does what you desire.
  2. You need Banner Intcomp, LMG, and Luminis, with certain minimum Banner General and Student versions. It also supports Banner HR for employees, but we don't have that. Check the interdependence guide for details.
  3. LMG, while it may be dubbed the "Learning Management Gateway" does not require a Learning Management product. What it does is act as Banner's interface to the LMB (the Luminis Mesage Broker, part of Luminis). LMG and LMB can be set up to talk to a learning management system (the WebCT systems, now Blackboard CE and Blackboard Vista are the most supported), but by default it is not.

Thanks for the info

Very cool, thank you.
Now I'll have to play a bit to get it all set up.
