To create artifacts and deploy the adapter:

1. On the Message Broker machine, start System Manager.

2. Create a new ICL for the artifacts that you create for the WebSphere version

of RMConnector. (We called ours RedMaintenanceForSF.)

the new ICL.

6. Add the business object and the connector from the new ICL to this project).
