WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus for z/OS, Version 6.2.0 Operating Systems: z/OS


Administrative control of mediation processing

You can control mediation flows between service requesters and service providers, administratively.

You can control mediation flows by changing module properties. The module properties set the values of mediation primitive properties.

Module properties

You can change the properties of Service Component Architecture (SCA) modules that contain mediation flows. You can make changes in the following ways:
  • When you install an application.
    • From the administrative console
    • Using an administrative command
  • When you administer an application.
    • From the administrative console
    • Using an administrative command

The properties that you can change are those that have been promoted from WebSphere® Integration Developer. Any property that you promote is also a dynamic property (which means that it can be overridden at run time using a mediation policy).

The module properties displayed on the administrative console, can do the following:
  • Change the values of properties in a mediation flow.
  • Provide default values for mediation flows that use mediation policies. (Promoted property values are used when there are no suitable mediation policy values. For further information, see the mediation policy model.)

Promoted properties always have a name, a type, and a value; you can change the value, administratively.

In addition, promoted properties can belong to a group (property groups are introduced in Version 6.2). Property groups can do the following:
  • Separate multiple properties that have the same name. An administrator sets property values inside groups. You might have one group for properties on the request flow, and another group for properties on the response flow.
  • Set multiple properties (of the same type) under one name. If the integration developer promotes two properties with the same alias name and group, then the administrator can set their values together. You might have logging for the request flow and the response flow, and want to set both at the same time.
  • Map to a namespace in a mediation policy.
