Creating a bus

Use this task to create a service integration bus.

Why and when to perform this task

To create a bus with a bus member use the administrative console to perform the following tasks: use the administrative console to complete the following steps:

Steps for this task

  1. Add a bus, see Adding a bus.
  2. Add a member to the bus.

    Adding a server as a member of a bus. This creates a messaging engine with default properties and that uses the default JDBC data source and Cloudscape JDBC Provider for its data store.

  3. Optional: If required, configure the messaging engine, see Configuring messaging engine properties.
  4. If required, configure the data store for the messaging engine. You would do this, for example, if you want to use DB2 rather than Cloudscape as the database system. See Configuring a JDBC data source.

    For a messaging engine in an application server, you can change the data store configuration. You could do this, for example, if you want to use DB2 rather than Cloudscape as the database system. For more information about changing the data store configuration, see Configuring a JDBC data source.

  5. Restart the server.. The messaging engine starts when the server starts.
A new bus has been created.
You can now change the configuration of the bus; for example, by adding additional members, creating bus destinations, and by creating links to WebSphere MQ networks. You can create other buses and, if required, connect them together.
