Configuring buses
You can configure service integration buses in a variety of ways;
for example you can create and apply security to a bus and you can then add
servers or server clusters to that bus.
Subtopics
Creating a bus
A bus is a way of interconnecting machines so that they can be
treated as one logical entity. You must first create a bus before you can
add servers or server clusters to that bus.
Adding a bus
A bus is a way of interconnecting machines so that they can be
treated as one logical entity. You must first add a bus before you can add
servers or server clusters to that bus.
Configuring bus properties
You can configure how many messages the bus can handle, when to
discard messages, and which messaging engines the bus can communicate with.
You can also specify changes that can be made to the bus that do not require
a restart of the messaging engines.
Listing the buses
You can view the list of the service integration buses that currently
exist. You can decide which buses you want to change, for example, to add
a server or a server cluster to a bus.
Displaying the topology of a service integration bus
You can display a tree view of the members of a bus, and the messaging
engines used by a selected bus, in the administrative console. You can also
view the runtime status for each messaging engine.
Deleting a bus
Use this task to delete a service integration bus, for example
if it is no longer in use.
Configuring messaging engines
You can configure messaging engines in a variety of ways; for example
you can create and apply security to a messaging engine and then you can use
this engine to send and receive messages.
Configuring bus destinations
Use the following tasks to configure permanent bus destinations on service integration buses.
Connecting buses
Connect several service integration buses in a network directly
or indirectly by creating foreign bus definitions and routing links between
them. You can also enable point to point or publish subscribe messaging across
multiple buses.
Defining outbound chains for bootstrapping
You can define new outbound chains using the wsadmin utility.
These chains can be used for bootstrapping connections to messaging engines.
