Creating an integration server from command line

On Linux®, UNIX and Windows, you can create integration nodes on the command line.

About this task

You can create an integration server by using the Toolkit, web user interface, or from command line. For more information, see Creating an integration server.

Follow these steps to add an integration server to an integration node:
Note: Optionally, you can create integration servers by using the Toolkit. See, Optional: Creating an integration server from the Toolkit.

Procedure

  1. Ensure that you have the authority to create an integration node by following the steps for your operating system:
    • UNIX platformLinux platform
      Run the mqsiprofile script to set up the command environment for the integration node as follows:
      install_dir/server/bin/mqsiprofile
      Where install_dir is the folder where IBM Integration Bus is installed. By default, it is /opt/IBM.
      Note: Ensure that you are logged in as user that has authority to run the mqsicreatebroker command.
    • Windows platform
      Open an IBM Integration Bus command prompt for the runtime installation in which you want to create the integration node.

      For more information about initializing the runtime environment, see Setting up a command environment.

      You must open a command console with elevated privileges. To open a command console with elevated privileges, use the mqsicommandconsole command. For more information, see mqsicommandconsole command.

  2. Use the mqsicreatebroker command to create the integration node.
    For example, if you want to create an integration node that is called ACM_NODE, enter the following command:
    ./mqsicreatebroker ACM_NODE
    When you create an integration node, the web user interface uses the default port 4414, and increments by one for each integration node after.
  3. Start the integration node by using the following command:
    ./mqsistart ACM_NODE
  4. Right-click the ACM_NODE integration node and select Start Web User Interface from the menu.

    For more information, see Accessing the web user interface.
