Creating a policy for messaging engines

Use this task to create a policy for your messaging engine, or engines, to control its high availability behavior.

About this task
A policy is a component of a core group. A core group can have a number of different policies; each policy applies to a particular high availability group (HAGroup) and determines the high availability behavior of resources in that group. For service integration, the resources that you want to control are the messaging engines.

To create a policy for a messaging engine, use the administrative console to perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Open the Policy page by clicking Servers > Core groups > Core group settings > core_group_name [Content Pane] > Configuration > Policies.
  2. Click New.
  3. From the Policy type list, click one of the following policy types. Only these policy types are applicable to service integration:

    One of N
    A messaging engine can fail over in a WebSphere Application Server cluster.
    No operation

  4. If required, configure the policy by using the topic Configuring a policy for messaging engines.
  5. Save your changes to the master configuration.
