Prerequisites

To configure your PeopleSoft Interaction Hub system, complete the following prerequisite steps:

1. Configure Oracle search engine for the PeopleSoft Search Framework. In addition, configure Integration Broker and the integration gateway on your PeopleSoft Interaction Hub system.

   See the product documentation for PeopleSoft 9.2 Application Installation for your database platform.

   See the product documentation for PeopleTools: Search Technology, “Administering PeopleSoft Search Framework,” Working with Search Instances.

2. Connect your PeopleSoft Interaction Hub system to the Oracle search engine instance.

3. Configure single signon (SSO) between your PeopleSoft Interaction Hub system and any content provider systems that host search indexes that you want to include in Global Search.

   See the product documentation for PeopleTools: Security Administration, “Implementing Single Signon,” Implementing PeopleSoft-Only Single Signon.

4. Define the URI text for the default local node (PSFT_PA) and all active local portal host nodes, such as, EMPL, CUST, PART, SUPP, and ENTP (PeopleTools > Portal > Node Definitionsand click the Portal tab).

   If the URI text is not set for PSFT_PA, you will see errors when you attempt to access search results for PeopleSoft Interaction Hub features such as action items, blogs, content, discussion forums and so on.

   If the URI text is not set for a particular portal host node, then you will see errors when you attempt to access search results for the portal registry assigned to that node (EMPLOYEE for the EMPL node, and so on).

After completing these tasks, you have to deploy search definitions and categories and build search indexes.

See Deploying Search Definitions and Categories, Building Search Indexes.
