Configure new MQ topics using scripting

 

You can use scripting to configure a new MQ topic. Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Start the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

 

Overview

Perform the following steps to configure a new MQ topic:

 

Procedure

1. Identify the parent ID:

   Use Jacl:

   set newjmsp [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/JMSProvider:JMSP1/]
   

   • Use Jython:

     newjmsp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:myNode/JMSProvider:JMSP1') print newjmsp
     

   Example output:

   JMSP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#JMSProvider_1)
   

2. Get required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig required MQTopic
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('MQTopic')
     

   Example output:

   Attribute            Type name                 String
   jndiName             String baseTopicName        String
   

3. Set up required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   set name [list name MQT] set jndi [list jndiName jms/MQT] set baseTN [list baseTopicName "Put the base topic name here"] set mqtAttrs [list $name $jndi $baseTN]
   

   Example output:

   {name MQT} {jndiName jms/MQT} {baseTopicName {Put the base topic name here}}
   

   • Use Jython:

     name = ['name', 'MQT'] jndi = ['jndiName', 'jms/MQT'] baseTN = ['baseTopicName', "Put the base topic name here"] mqtAttrs = [name, jndi, baseTN] print mqtAttrs
     

     Example output:

     [[name, MQT], [jndiName, jms/MQT], [baseTopicName, "Put the base topic name here"]]
     

4. Create MQ topic factory:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig create MQTopic $newjmsp $mqtAttrs
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.create('MQTopic', newjmsp, mqtAttrs)
     

   Example output:

   MQT(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#MQTopic_1)
   

5. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.

6. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the Synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
