How to Create Agent in OIC

How to Create Agent in OIC

When you install the connectivity agent in your environment, you associate the connectivity agent with the agent group identifier. Only one connectivity agent can be associated with an agent group. For a single Oracle Integration instance, you can create up to five agent groups. Creating the agent group also creates the necessary artifacts required for message exchange.

To create an agent group:

1. In the navigation pane, click Integrations, then click Agents.
2. Click Create Agent Group.
3. Enter the following information, then click Create

Note: Just keep note of the Identifier.

Now download the Connectivity Agent jar from console.

Unzip the file and edit InstallerProfile.cfg in it.

Enter OIC environment details and agent Identifier.

Note: you have to add oic_USER/oic_PASSWORD, it will not be there by default since it’s an optional parameter.

You must place the file in Linux server using winscp/filezilla.

Now navigate to the folder location in putty and run below command to run the connectivity agent. I have used nohup & to run this in in background.

nohup java -jar connectivityagent.jar &

Once you see the above message, you can confirm agent its running successfully. You can also check the agent status in OIC, Navigate to Monitoring, Agents and look for the status.
