Listing or deleting active WS-Notification publisher registrations

List the publisher registrations that exist at run time for a particular WS-Notification service point, or for all service points for a particular WS-Notification service.

About this task

A WS-Notification application can register itself as a publisher in order to check that it is permitted to publish on the specified list of topics, or to initiate the demand based publisher pattern.

The runtime panels for WS-Notification publisher registrations list the publisher registrations that are currently in effect on this WS-Notification service or service point (that is, applications that have registered as publishers). You can view the basic properties of the registration record. You can also delete a publisher registration record. For example, to tidy up after a badly-behaved application.

Note: Both the WS-Notification subscription and publisher registration resources include the concept of scheduled termination, in which the application indicates a period of time after which the resource is destroyed. "Badly-behaved" in this case describes an application that requests an infinite lifetime for a resource and then does not explicitly delete the resource before it goes away (never to return).

To display a list of WS-Notification publisher registrations that exist at run time, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Choose between information for a particular service point, or information aggregated for all service points for a particular service, by completing one of the following substeps:
    1. Optional: For run-time information for a particular service point, navigate to either Service integration > Web services > WS-Notification services > [Content Pane] service_name > WS-Notification service points > [Content Pane] point_name or Service integration > Buses > [Content Pane] bus_name > [Services] WS-Notification services > [Content Pane] service_name > WS-Notification service points > [Content Pane] point_name, then click the Runtime tab.
      A panel is displayed that contains links to run-time information about subscriptions, registrations, pull points and administered subscribers for this WS-Notification service point.
    2. Optional: For run-time information aggregated for all service points for a particular service, navigate to either Service integration > Web services > WS-Notification services > [Content Pane] service_name or Service integration > Buses > [Content Pane] bus_name > [Services] WS-Notification services > [Content Pane] service_name, then click the Runtime tab.
      A panel is displayed that contains links to run-time information about subscriptions, registrations and pull points for this WS-Notification service.
  2. Click Publisher registrations The Publisher registrations [Collection] form is displayed. This form shows all the currently active publisher registrations for this WS-Notification service point or service. This collection form contains the following information about each list item:
    Publisher ID
    The unique identifier of this publisher registration.
    Topic
    The topic on which the publisher is registered to publish. That is, the list of topics that are contained within a single service integration bus topic space (and thus durable subscription).
    Creation time
    The time at which the registration was created.
    Termination time
    The time at which the registration will be deleted.
    Demand based
    Indicates whether this is a demand based publisher. This displays "Yes" or "No".
    Producer EPR
    Additional publisher related data. The endpoint reference of the producer that created this registration.
What to do next
To delete one or more publisher registrations, enable the check box next to each registration ID then click Delete.
