Broker Topology editor

The Broker Topology editor is the default editor that is provided by the Broker Administration perspective for managing brokers and collectives, and for saving topology changes to the Configuration Manager in a single step.

The Broker Topology editor is launched in the editor area of the Broker Administration perspective when you double-click Broker Topology in the Domains view.

When the editor is launched, an overview pane is displayed in the Outline view that is located in the same place as the Properties view. Use the Properties tab or the Outline tab to select which of these two views is displayed.

Use the Broker Topology editor to do any of the following:

When you save topology changes to the Configuration Manager, the topology information in the Domains view on every workbench that is connected to the Configuration Manager is refreshed automatically.

For information about changing the palette preferences in Message Brokers Toolkit Version 5.1, see Changing palette preferences.

By default, the Broker Topology editor has a background image of a world map. You can change the background image, and modify its scale factor, or choose not to display an image.
