Configuring WS-Notification for reliable notification
To ensure that WS-Notification web service interactions are performed in a reliable way, you configure a JAX-WS based Version 7.0 WS-Notification service, JAX-WS client, and JAX-WS based WS-Notification consumer web service (through policy set functions) to use WS-ReliableMessaging.
Before you begin
This task assumes that you have created a Version 7.0 WS-Notification
service and service point, and that you have created two JAX-WS
applications:
- A JAX-WS client application, created from the WSDL of the new service point.
- A JAX-WS based WS-Notification consumer web service.
About this task
Reliable notification refers to the reliable transmission
of messages to and from the IBM WS-Notification implementation. You
enable this reliability to mitigate the problems inherent in network
transmission protocols such as HTTP.
Note: This reliability does not
include the behavior of the application server itself. For more information,
see WS-Notification and end-to-end
reliability.
To enable reliable notification, you apply policy sets that include the WS-ReliableMessaging policy to the service point, service client, and service consumer applications.
You can configure policy sets for JAX-WS clients for both application server and client environments, including thin clients. For more information, see Managing policy sets using the administrative console.
