Administer message stores

A message store enables a messaging engine to preserve operating information and to retain those objects that messaging engines need for recovery in the event of a failure. The default message store for a typical messaging engine is file store. We can also configure a messaging engine to use a data store.

Subtopics

• Administer file stores
  A file store is a type of message store that directly uses files in the file system through the operating system. Each messaging engine has one and only one file store.

• Administer data stores
  A data store is a type of message store that uses a relational database. A data store consists of a set of tables that are in the same database schema. It is used by a messaging engine to store operating information in the database, as well as to preserve essential objects that the messaging engine needs for recovery in the event of a failure.

• Avoiding message store errors when creating a messaging engine
  Using different combinations of parameters can create a file store or a data store according the requirements. The outcome varies in server and cluster scopes.

  Using different combinations of parameters can create a file store or a data store according the requirements. The outcome varies in server and cluster scopes.
