Starting a message flow by using the WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit or WebSphere Message Broker Explorer
Use the WebSphere® Message Broker Toolkit or WebSphere Message Broker Explorer to start a message flow.
You can start an individual message flow in the WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit, or multiple message flows in the WebSphere Message Broker Explorer. If you stop the execution group in which the message flow is running, the started or stopped status of the message flow is retained. From WebSphere Message Broker Version 8.0 onwards, you can set the default behavior of message flows and applications when you deploy or restart an execution group.
If your message flow includes a subflow that is defined in a .subflow file, you can start your message flow only if the subflow is deployed to the same execution group.
