JMS provider settings

Use this panel to view the configuration properties of a selected JMS provider.

To view this page, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:
  1. In the navigation pane, click Resources > JMS > JMS providers . This displays a list of JMS providers in the content pane. For each JMS provider in the list, the entry indicates the scope level at which JMS resource definitions are visible to applications. You can create the same type of JMS provider at different Scope settings, to offer JMS resources at different levels of visibility to applications.
  2. (optional) If you want to manage JMS resources that are defined at a different scope setting, change the Scope setting to the required level.
  3. In the Providers column of the list displayed, click the name of a JMS provider.

If you want to browse or change JMS resources of the JMS provider, click the link for the type of resource under Additional Properties. For more information about the administrative console panels for the types of JMS resources, see the related topics.

For the default messaging provider (which is based on service integration technologies) and the WebSphere® MQ messaging provider, the scope, name, and description properties are displayed for information only. You cannot change these properties.

For a third-party non-JCA provider that you have defined yourself, the properties of that provider are displayed.

Scope

The level (cell, node, or server level) at which this resource definition is available.

Resources such as messaging providers, namespace bindings, or shared libraries can be defined at multiple scopes, with resources defined at more specific scopes overriding duplicates that are defined at more general scopes. For more information about the scope setting, see Scope settings.

Name

The name by which the JMS provider is known for administrative purposes.

Data type String
Default
  • Default messaging provider.

    For JMS resources to be provided by a service integration bus, as part of WebSphere Application Server.

  • My JMSprovider

    For JMS resources to be provided by a third-party JMS provider that you specify, rather than by the default messaging provider or the WebSphere MQ messaging provider that are available as part of WebSphere Application Server. You assign the name, for example "My JMSprovider", when you define the third-party JMS provider to WebSphere Application Server. You must also have installed and configured the third-party JMS provider before applications can use its JMS resources.

  • WebSphere MQ messaging provider

    For JMS resources to be provided by WebSphere MQ. You must have installed and configured WebSphere MQ before applications can use its JMS resources.

  • V5 default messaging provider.

    For JMS resources to be provided by a WebSphere Application Server Version 5 node.

Description

A description of the JMS provider, for administrative purposes within WebSphere Application Server.

Data type String

Classpath

A list of paths or JAR file names that together form the location for the JMS provider classes. Each class path entry is on a separate line (separated by using the Enter key) and must not contain path separator characters (such as ';' or ': '). Class paths can contain variable (symbolic) names to be substituted by using a variable map. Check your driver installation notes for specific JAR file names that are required.

This property is only available for third-party messaging providers.

Data type String

Native library path

An optional path to any native libraries (*.dll, *.so). Each native path entry is on a separate line (separated by using the Enter key) and must not contain path separator characters (such as ';' or ': '). Native paths can contain variable (symbolic) names to be substituted by using a variable map.

This property is only available for the WebSphere MQ messaging provider and third-party messaging providers.

Data type String

Update resource adapter

This button can be used to update the WebSphere MQ resource adapter that provides the function made available by the WebSphere MQ messaging provider. This button must only be used as directed by a member of IBM® service, otherwise it may result in the use of an unsupported level of the WebSphere MQ resource adapter.

Normally the WebSphere MQ resource adapter is automatically updated by applying WebSphere Application Server fix packs. It is important to note that use of the Update resource adapter button prevents these automatic updates from happening for future fix packs for any node on which the button is used. If, in the future, you require the WebSphere MQ resource adapter used by the node to receive updates when a fix pack is applied then you must re-establish the recommended resource adaptor configuration. For more information see Maintaining the WebSphere MQ JCA resource adapter.

This property is only available for the WebSphere MQ messaging provider.

Data type Button

External initial context factory

The Java™ classname of the initial context factory for the JMS provider.

For example, for an LDAP service provider the value has the form: com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory.

This property is only available for third-party messaging providers.

Data type String
Default Null

External provider URL

The JMS provider URL for external JNDI lookups.

For example, an LDAP URL for a messaging provider has the form: ldap://hostname.company.com/contextName.

This property is only available for third-party messaging providers.

Data type String
Default Null
