Figure 9-37 Bus configuration window

The following properties can be set:

Description

This field is an optional description for the bus, for administrative purposes.

Inter-engine transport chain

The transport chain used for communication between messaging engines in this bus. It must correspond to one of the transport chains defined in the Messaging engine inbound transports settings for the server. When you specify the name of a transport chain, that chain must be defined to all servers hosting messaging engines in the bus. Otherwise, some messaging engines might not be able to communicate with their peers in the bus. The default transport chain is InboundBasicMessaging.

Discard messages

Use this field to specify whether messages on a deleted message point should be retained at a system exception destination or can be discarded.

Configuration reload enabled

Select this option to enable certain changes to the bus configuration to be applied without requiring the messaging engines to be restarted. If you select this option, make sure the matching flag on the SIB service is also enabled. See 9.8.1, SIB service configuration.

High message threshold

Enter a threshold above which the messaging system will take action to limit the addition of more messages to a message point. When a messaging engine is created on this bus, the value of this property sets the default high message threshold for the messaging engine.

3. Click Apply or OK and save your changes.
