See information about the latest product version

Restrictions that apply in each operation mode

The operation mode in which your broker is working defines how many execution groups you can use, and which nodes are available.

Developer Edition mode

All features are enabled for an unlimited time, but you can use the product for evaluation purposes only (within the terms of the license). This edition is available on Windows x86-64 and Linux x86-64 operating systems only.

Trial Edition mode

All features are enabled, but you can use the product for only 90 days after installation. Trial Edition is available for WebSphere® Message Broker Version 8.0.0.0, and has been replaced in Version 8.0.0.1 by the Developer Edition.

Standard Edition mode

All features are enabled. You can create one execution group, but the number of message flows that you can deploy is unlimited.

Not all samples work in Standard Edition mode because the sample import and deploy wizards create one or more execution groups, and the number of execution groups is limited in this mode.

You can run a sample in Standard Edition mode if the default execution group is deleted after you have run the Default Configuration wizard, but before you install the sample. For example, to run the Pager sample:

  1. Run the Default Configuration wizard.
  2. Delete the default execution group on the MB8BROKER that is created by the wizard.
  3. To import and deploy the Pager sample, click Set up the Pager samples.
  4. Follow the documented steps to run the Pager samples.

If you want to run samples to explore and understand the features of the product, you can install them on your development and unit test computers; see Development and unit test.

Express Edition mode

The functions that are enabled are limited, and you can create only one execution group. Therefore, not all samples work in Express® Edition mode.

The following message flow nodes can be used in express mode. Plug-in nodes are also supported in express mode.

Scale mode

There is no limit to the number of execution groups that you can create in Scale mode, but the available nodes are limited. Therefore, not all samples work in Scale mode.

The following message flow nodes can be used in Scale mode.

Notes:
  1. A separate license for adapters is required before you can use the WebSphere Adapters nodes in Scale mode.

Remote Adapter Deployment mode

Only adapter-related features are enabled, and the types of node that you can use, and the number of execution groups that you can create, are limited. You can create up to two execution groups, with no limit on the number of deployed message flows in each of these execution groups.

Not all samples work in this mode. If you want to run samples to explore and understand the features of the product, you can install them on your development and unit test computers; see Development and unit test.

The following message flow nodes can be used in adapter mode. Plug-in nodes are also supported in adapter mode.

Advanced mode

All features are enabled and no restrictions or limits are imposed.
