Specifying an exception bus destination

Specify an exception destination if you want to prevent messages that cannot be delivered to their original intended destination from being lost.

About this task

Complete this task if you want a bus destination to use a non-default exception destination for undeliverable messages. The bus destination for which you are specifying an exception destination is referred to as the "intended bus destination".

Note:
  • It is not possible to configure an exception destination for the entire bus; you must configure an exception destination for each destination on the bus.
  • You should not modify or delete the default system destination.
  • Configuring an exception destination prevents guaranteed ordering throughout the bus. For more information on ensuring ordering, see Message ordering.
For more information on exception destinations see Related links.

To specify a new exception destination for a bus destination, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Create the exception destination, as a queue. For information about creating a queue, see Creating a queue for point-to-point messaging.
  2. Type the name of the exception destination in the Exception destination field of the intended bus destination.
    1. In the navigation pane, click Service integration > Buses.
    2. In the content pane, click the name of the bus on which the destination is to be created.
    3. In the content pane, under Destination resources, click Destinations. This displays any existing destinations in the content pane.
    4. Click the destination name.
    5. Under Exception destination, select the Specify radio button.
    6. Type the name of the exception destination in the Exception destination field.
  3. Save your changes to the master configuration.
