Testing the Deployment

After you deploy the Federation .ear file, you need to verify that the deployment was successful by running a test command provided with your SIMULIA Execution Engine installation.

  1. Open a Command Prompt dialog box (Windows) or terminal window (Linux).

  2. Navigate to the following directory (depending on your operating system): 

    <see_install_dir>/<os_dir>/code/command/

  3. Execute the following command, replacing hostname with the IP address or DNS name of the WebSphere Server host machine and port with the TCP listen port of the WebSphere Server instance hosting the Federation application:

    b2btest http://hostname:port

    For example: b2btest http://seeserver:9080

  4. Verify that the following message appears, where hostname is the name of your SIMULIA Execution Engine (for example, seeserverNode01Cell):

    Hi there, this is B2B Web Service deployed to 'hostname' server instance.

    If an error occurs during this test, a message appears instructing you to verify the URL protocol, the host name of the server running the application, the corresponding port number, and the deployment of the Federation application.

  5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for each SIMULIA Execution Engine in your Federation environment.

  6. Proceed to one of the following sections, based on your desired Federation security level:
