Deleting Event Server Connections Using Fusion Middleware Control

16-2 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle WebCenter

16.1 What You Should Know About Instant Messaging and Presence Connections

The IMP service enables you to observe the presence status of other authenticated application users online, offline, busy, or away and provides instant access to interaction options, such as instant messages IM and mails. A single connection to a back-end presence server is required. WebCenter is certified with Microsoft Office Communications Server OCS 2007 and Microsoft Office Live Communications Server LCS 2005, and it can integrate with other presence servers. Oracle WebLogic Communications Services OWLCS 11g is available for download on Oracle Technology Network OTN at http:www.oracle.comtechnetworkindex.html . For information on OWLCS installation, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebCenter. You can register the presence server connection for your WebCenter application through the Fusion Middleware Control Console or using WLST. You must mark a connection as active for the service to work. You can register additional presence server connections, but only one connection is active at a time.
