Use
the administrative console to configure individual WS-Notification
services, service points, administered subscribers, permanent topic
namespaces,
topic namespace documents and JAX-WS handlers.
About this task
WS-Notification enables web services to use the publish and subscribe messaging pattern. For
more information, see WS-Notification: Overview and WS-Notification.
For high-level configuration
of WS-Notification, see Accomplishing common WS-Notification tasks.
Use the steps for this task to configure individual instances of each
type
of WS-Notification resource.
You access the WS-Notification
panels through
the
Service integration section of the administrative
console navigation pane:
- To see a list
of all the WS-Notification
services within the cell, click .
- To see a list of all the WS-Notification services for a particular
service
integration bus, click .
To support the Java API for XML-based Web Services (JAX-WS) and composition with WS-ReliableMessaging, you create your WS-Notification services as JAX-WS applications. The implementation of WS-Notification in WebSphere® Application Server Version 6.1 uses JAX-RPC applications, so there are now two different implementations of the WS-Notification service and service point:
- Version 7.0: Use this type of service if you want to compose a JAX-WS WS-Notification service with web service qualities of service (QoS) via policy sets, or if you want to apply JAX-WS handlers to your WS-Notification service. This is the recommended type of service for new deployments. This WS-Notification option has been available in WebSphere Application Server from Version 7.0.
- Version 6.1: Use this type of service if you want to expose a JAX-RPC WS-Notification service that uses the same technology provided in WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1, including the ability to apply JAX-RPC handlers to the service. This WS-Notification option has been available in WebSphere Application Server from Version 6.1.
To
configure specific WS-Notification resources, use the administrative
console to complete any of the following tasks:
