You can configure your SALT application by using command-line utilities. Specifically, you can use an XML editor to create and edit the configuration file (WSDF) files and SALTDEPLOY file) for your application, and then use the command-line utility, wsloadcf, to translate the XML files (SALTDEPLOY file and referenced WSDF files) to a binary file (SALTCONFIG). You are then ready to boot the SALT gateway (GWWS) servers.

The following list identifies SALT command-line utilities that you can use to configure your application:

• wsloadcf(1)

  A command that is initiated on each Oracle Tuxedo machine. It allows you to compile your application SALTDEPLOY file and referenced WSDF files into the binary SALTCONFIG file. The wsloadcf command loads the binary file to the location defined by the SALTCONFIG environment variable.

• wscobolcvt(1)

  A command that converts an external Web Service Description Language (WSDL) file into Oracle Tuxedo definition files (WSDF file, Oracle Tuxedo Service Metadata definition file, FML32 field table file and XML Schema file). The generated WSDF file is a non-native WSDF file used for SALT outbound calls specifically.

  wscobolcvt(1)

  A command that converts COBOL copybook into SALT artifacts for exposing COBOL services as as web services.

For more information, see SALT Command Reference

Since SALT is built on the Oracle Tuxedo framework, you should also use the following Oracle Tuxedo provided command-line utilities to configure SALT specific items in an Oracle Tuxedo application:

• tmloadcf(1)

  A command that runs on the master Oracle Tuxedo machine. It is used to compile the Oracle Tuxedo application UBBCONFIG file into the binary TUXCONFIG file. To boot SALT gateway servers, you must define GWWS servers in the UBBCONFIG file.

• tmloadrepos(1)

  A command that runs on the machine where the Oracle Tuxedo Service Metadata Repository System Server (TMMETADATA) is booted. It loads the Oracle Tuxedo service metadata definition text files into the binary Oracle Tuxedo Service Metadata Repository file. You must load all existing Oracle Tuxedo services that are to be exposed as Web service operations in the Oracle Tuxedo Service Metadata Repository. You must also load all wsdlcvt generated SALT proxy services in the Oracle Tuxedo Service Metadata Repository.

• saml

  The wsadmin sub-command saml can be used to manage SAML related metadata for use with the SAML Single Sign-On capability. For more information, see wsadmin in the SALT Command Reference
