Configuring a data source for a messaging engine running in a cluster

Methods to configure a data source for a messaging engine depends on the cluster you intend to run it in.

About this task
Although you must configure a data source for all active messaging engines, the configuration process for a messaging engine running in a cluster is the same as for any single messaging engine. For more information, refer to Setting up the data store for a messaging engine and Vendor-specific data sources minimum required settings.

The data store configuration depends on the purpose of your cluster:

For more information about clusters, refer to Service integration high availability and workload sharing configurations.

When a messaging engine is created as a member of a cluster, you must explicitly configure both the data store and the JDBC data source that the messaging engine uses to interact with the data store.
  • If each messaging engine has its own JDBC data source, you can create the data sources at node scope.
  • If several messaging engines share the same JDBC data source, you must create the data source at cluster scope, not node scope.

You must also ensure that you install the JDBC driver jars at every node. For more information, refer to Creating and configuring a data source using the administrative console.
