Configure messaging with 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 WebSphere MQ settings.

Overview

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 creats 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 WebSphere MQ settings. A WebSphere MQ server represents either a WebSphere MQ queue manager or a WebSphere MQ queue sharing group. It is used by Service Integration Bus messaging to define properties used for connecting to WebSphere MQ. Setting up a WebSphere MQ server involves using the administrative console to create the server definition, add it to a service integration bus, and create a WebSphere MQ queue type destination.
