Removing a messaging engine from a bus

Use this task to remove a messaging engine from a bus.

Why and when to perform this task

To remove a messaging engine from a bus, use the administrative console to complete the following steps.

Steps for this task

  1. Stop the messaging engine. You can stop either in Immediate or Force mode as described in Stopping a messaging engine.
  2. Use the deleteSIBEngine command to delete the messaging engine. All service integration bus links, MQ links, and custom properties owned by the engine are deleted.
    Note: When you remove a messaging engine, WebSphere Application Server does not delete the data store tables automatically. You must remove them manually, or delete all of the rows in all of the tables. Failure to do this can result in a new messaging engine failing to start if it attempts to use an orphaned data store. Refer to the documentation for your chosen relational database management system for information about how to delete tables.

    For Cloudscape, you can alternatively delete the database's directory, which is located in profile_root/databases/com.ibm.ws.sib, where profile_root is the directory in which profile-specific information is stored. However, only select this option if the messaging engine is the sole user of the database.

    For more information , see Data store life cycle.
