Mediation application installation

A mediation application is an enterprise application (EAR file) containing a mediation handler enterprise bean project. Installing the EAR file into WebSphere Application Server (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 we intend the mediation to mediate a topic, install the mediation on every server that has a messaging engine.

• If we add a new member to the bus after we have mediated a topic, install the mediation on the new bus member.

• If we 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 we are installing a mediation application for use when WAS security is enabled, you must ensure that the messaging engine can access the mediation. For more information, see Ensuring the message engine can access mediations.
