Queue connection factory page

A queue connection factory is used to create connections to the associated JMS provider of the JMS queue destinations, for point-to-point messaging.

In the administrative console, to view this page click Resources > JMS->Queue connection factories.

This page lists the JMS queue connection factories that are available to WebSphere Application Server applications at the scope indicated by the Scope field.

A JMS queue connection factory is used to create connections to JMS destinations. When an application needs a JMS queue connection, an instance can be created by the factory for the JMS provider that is named in the Provider column of the list.

This type of connection factory is for applications that use the JMS 1.0.2 queue-specific interfaces.

If WebSphere MQ functionality has been disabled, an informational message indicating that WebSphere MQ has been disabled appears when the scope field is set to a scope which is the same as, or above, the scope at which WebSphere MQ has been disabled, or when the scope field is set to display all scopes. Note that this informational message is not displayed if you are viewing a provider specific collection that is not for WebSphere MQ (for example, the default messaging provider collection). In a single server environment this informational message is only displayed when the server is restarted after WebSphere MQ functionality has been disabled. In a network deployment environment the informational message is displayed immediately. For more information see Disabling WebSphere MQ functionality in WAS.
