Generic JMS destination settings

Use this panel to browse or change the configuration properties of the selected JMS destination for use with the associated JMS provider.

A JMS destination is used to configure the properties of a JMS destination for the associated generic messaging provider (not the default messaging provider or WebSphere MQ). Connections to the JMS destination are created by the associated JMS connection factory. To view this page, use the console to complete the following steps:

  1. In the navigation pane, click Resources > JMS Providers > Generic.

  2. In the content pane, click the name of the messaging provider to support the JMS destination.

  3. Under Additional Properties, click JMS destinations.

  4. Click the name of the JMS destination to work with.

A JMS destination for use with a generic messaging provider has the following properties.

Name

The name by which the queue is known for administrative purposes within IBM WAS.

Data type String

Type

Whether this JMS destination is a queue (for point-to-point) or topic (for publish/subscribe). Select one of the following options:

Queue

A JMS queue destination for point-to-point messaging.

Topic

A JMS topic destination for publish/subscribe messaging.

JNDI name

The JNDI name that is used to bind the queue into the appserver's name space.

As a convention, use the fully qualified JNDI name; for example, in the form jms/Name, where Name is the logical name of the resource.

This name is used to link the platform binding information. The binding associates the resources defined by the deployment descriptor of the module to the actual (physical) resources bound into JNDI by the platform.

Data type String

Description

A description of the queue, for administrative purposes

Data type String

Category

A category used to classify or group this queue, for your IBM WebSphere Application Server administrative records.

Data type String

External JNDI name

The JNDI name that is used to bind the queue into the appserver's name space.

As a convention, use the fully qualified JNDI name; for example, in the form jms/Name, where Name is the logical name of the resource.

This name is used to link the platform binding information. The binding associates the resources defined by the deployment descriptor of the module to the actual (physical) resources bound into JNDI by the platform.

Data type String

 

Configuration tab

Scope

Level to which this resource definition is visible to applications.

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 which are defined at more general scopes.

The scope displayed is for information only, and cannot be changed on this panel. To browse or change this resource (or other resources) at a different scope, change the scope on the messaging provider settings panel, then click Apply, before clicking the link for the type of resource.
