Configure the Common Event Infrastructure Service to process events in WebSphere applications
and processes.
Before you begin
This task assumes you have installed the Common Event Infrastructure
server, deployed a Message Driven Bean application (WebSphere messaging service
or a JMS messaging service), and that you are logged into the WebSphere Process Server administrative
console.
Why and when to perform this task
You configure the Common Event Infrastructure Service, to enable or disable the event
server, by modifying the Enable service at server startup property,
which specifies whether or not the service is started automatically for a
specific application server.
Steps for this task
- In the administrative console navigation pane, click Servers
> Application servers. A list of the Application
servers is displayed in the content pane.
- Click into the Application server you want to configure. The properties for that Application server are displayed in the
Configuration tab.
- Look in the Container Settings table, and
expand the Container Services menu.
- Click on Common Event Infrastructure Service to display its properties.
- Under General Properties, select or clear the Enable
service at server startup property check box.
Note: If
you disable the Common Event Infrastructure Service from the administrative
console, the enterprise application is also disabled automatically. If you
use the wsadmin tool to disable the service from a script,
you must disable the enterprise application separately.
CAUTION:
Disabling
the Common Event Infrastructure Service will prevent the Common Event Infrastructure
Server from processing any events. No event information will be persisted
in the database, nor will events be distributed to JMS destinations.
- Selected
- [Default] The Common Event Infrastructure Service starts when the application server starts.
This enables applications that generate events to run on the application server.
- Cleared
- The Common Event Infrastructure Service will not start when the application server starts. Applications
that generate events will not start on this application server.
Any attempt
to start an application that uses the Common Event Infrastructure Service is rejected, and a message
is issued. The server will continue to start without the application.
- To save and apply your configuration, click the OK button.
- Stop and restart the application server for the changes to take
effect.
