Configuring a BAM Server Profile

Before adding the BAM mediator to a sequence, you must configure a BAM server profile that contains the transport and credential data required to connect to the BAM Thrift server. In each BAM server profile, you also configure one or more event streams to identify the data to be extracted from the configuration context of the mediation sequence.

You can use these same steps to configure a server profile for any server with a listening Thrift port, such as WSO2 Complex Event Processor (CEP). You can then use the BAM mediator to connect to that server through this server profile.

To configure a BAM server profile:
  1. On the Configure tab in the ESB Management Console, click BAM Server Profile.
  2. To edit an existing BAM server profile, click Edit Profile for that profile. To add a new profile, click Add profile.
  3. Specify the following:
    • Profile Name: Enter a unique value for this profile.
    • Server Credential: Enter the user name and password to log in to the BAM server.
    • Protocol: Leave Thrift selected.
    • Enable Security: If you require message confidentiality between the ESB server and BAM server, click Enable Security.
    • IP Address: Enter the host IP address of the BAM server. By default, this is the IP address of the localhost. You can verify the host IP address on the home page of the BAM Management Console. 
    • Receiver Port: If security was not enabled, specify the Thrift server port. The default is 7611, which you should increment by the same value as the port offset if you configured a port offset for BAM (such as 7612 if the BAM port offset is 1). For more information, see Configuring the BAM ports.
    • Authentication Port: Specify a value 100 higher than the receiver port. The default is 7711, which you should increment by the same value as the port offset. For more information, see Configuring the BAM ports.
  4. To configure an event stream, specify the following, and then click Add Stream:
    • Name: Any string with alpha-numeric characters.
    • Version: Distinguishes different streams with the same stream name. Default version should be 1.0.0.
    • Nickname: A meaningful nickname that will help you identify the stream.
    • Description: A meaningful description of this particular stream defined by the stream name/version pair.
  5. Repeat step 4 to add additional streams as needed.
  6. Click Save.

 You can now select this server profile and one of its streams when adding a BAM Mediator.
