Properties
You can view and change properties that define broker characteristics, and those properties of associated resources such as message flows.
- Broker properties
- Each broker has a set of properties that define certain characteristics
that you can control:
- You can set some broker properties only at the time that you create the broker by using the mqsicreatebroker command; for example, its associated queue manager.
- You can change some of the broker properties by using the mqsichangebroker command; for example, timeout values for processing configuration requests.
- You can view all broker properties by using the mqsireportbroker command.
- You can access some broker properties from ESQL and Java™ programs that you run in message flow nodes. For details of these options, see Broker properties.
- Node properties
- Each built-in (supplied) node has at least one property that you
can configure; some properties are mandatory, others are optional.
In addition to setting these properties for each node when you add
it to a message flow, you can also use the following configuration
techniques:
- You can promote properties, so that you can set them at the message flow level. For information about how and why you might want to use this technique, see Promoted properties.
- You can configure properties when you add the message flow to a BAR file for deployment. In each node description, the subset of node properties that you can use in this way are identified. For more information, see Editing configurable properties.
- User-defined properties
- You can create your own properties when you create a message flow, and access those properties from ESQL and Java programs in your message flow nodes. For further details, see User-defined properties
- Configurable service properties
- You can modify some of the properties of the configurable services that are supplied to enhance your message flow processing options. For example, configurable services are supplied to communicate with enterprise information systems such as SAP.
- You can also create your own configurable services, as variants of the supplied services, or to provide additional options.
- For further information, see Configurable services.
