Mediation application installation
A mediation application is an enterprise application (EAR file) that contains a mediation handler enterprise bean project. Installing the EAR file into WAS (base) makes the mediation handler available for use at a destination.
We must install the EAR file on every server on which you intend the mediation to run, taking into account the following:
- If you intend the mediation to mediate a topic, install the mediation on every server that has a messaging engine.
- If you add a new member to the bus after we have mediated a topic, install the mediation on the new bus member.
- If you are installing on a queue, install the EAR file on the queue point. For a partitioned queue, install the EAR file on the cluster.
Install a mediation application on a secure server
If you are installing a mediation application for use when
WAS security is enabled, ensure that the messaging engine can access the mediation.
