Stopping a mediation
Use this task to stop a selected mediation at a mediation point.
Before we can operate a mediation, it must be associated with a destination. For more information, see Mediating a destination.
Stopping a mediation, as with all runtime operations on mediations, is carried out at a specialized message point on the destination, called a mediation point. By stopping a mediation, you stop any further messages from being delivered to the mediation point. Messages sent to the destination are held at the pre-mediated part of the destination. The messages are not mediated and are not made available to message consumers until the mediation is restarted. Note that mediations starts operating on messages after the server has started and no new messages are mediated after server shutdown begins.
To stop a selected mediation, use the console to complete the following steps:
- List the mediation points.
- To list the mediation points for a bus destination, click Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Destination resources] Destinations -> destination_name -> [Message Points] Mediation points.
- To list the mediation points for a messaging engine, click Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Topology] Messaging engines -> engine_name -> [Message points] Mediation points.
- Select the mediation name.
- Click Stop.
Results
The mediation is stopped at the mediation point. Messages arriving at the mediation point are not processed by the mediation. The messages are stored at the mediation point until the mediation is restarted.
