Creating a messaging engine

To create the first messaging engine for a bus member, you add a server or a server cluster as a member of a bus and the messaging engine is created automatically. You can create additional messaging engines for a cluster bus member. Typically, you do this to provide workload sharing or scalability in the cluster.

About this task

Each server bus member has one, and only one, messaging engine. Cluster bus members can support additional engines. To add additional messaging engines to a cluster bus member, you can either use the administrative console (see Adding a messaging engine to a cluster), or use the createSIBEngine command.

When you add a new messaging engine, the flow of messages through existing messaging engines is not disrupted. If dynamic reloading of configuration files is configured for the bus, you do not need to restart the existing messaging engines for them to become aware of the new messaging engine. To configure dynamic reloading, select the Configuration reload enabled property for the bus. For more information about configuring bus properties, see Configuring bus properties.
