Configuring messaging with wsadmin scripting

Use these topics to learn about configuring messaging with the wsadmin tool. You can configure the message listener service, Java™ Messaging Service settings, queue and connection factories, and IBM MQ settings.

About this task

You can use the wsadmin tool to configure various messaging connections and settings.

Procedure

  • Configure the message listener service.

    The message listener service is an extension to the JMS functions of the JMS provider. It provides a listener manager that controls and monitors one or more JMS listeners, which each monitor a JMS destination on behalf of a deployed message-driven bean.

  • Configure Java Messaging Service (JMS) providers, destinations, and connections.

    The application server supports asynchronous messaging through the use of a JMS provider and its related messaging system. You can use the wsadmin tool to configure new JMS providers, destinations, and connections.

    A JMS destination is used to configure the properties for the associated messaging provider. Connections to the JMS destination are created by the associated JMS connection factory. A JMS connection factory is used to create connections to the associated JMS provider of JMS destinations, for both point-to-point and publish/subscribe messaging.

  • Configure queue and topic connection factories for the application server.
    Use queue and topic connection factories to create connections between providers and destinations. A queue connection factory creates a connection to the associated JMS provider of the JMS queue destinations, for point-to-point messaging. A topic connection factory creates a connection to the associated JMS provider of JMS topic destinations, for publish and subscribe messaging.
  • Configure IBM MQ settings.
    An IBM MQ server represents either a IBM MQ queue manager or an IBM MQ queue sharing group. It is used by service integration bus messaging to define properties used for connecting to IBM MQ. Setting up a IBM MQ server involves using the administrative console to create the server definition, add it to a service integration bus, and create a IBM MQ queue type destination.
