We can configure the properties of a messaging engine in the dmgr console. For example we can select whether the messaging engine is started automatically when its associated application server is started, how many messages it can process, and target groups the engine can join.
In most cases, we can configure the properties of a messaging engine without interrupting the processing of messages by the messaging engine.
- Start the dmgr console.
- Navigate to...
Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Topology] Messaging engines -> engine_name
- Configure the messaging engine properties.
- Click OK.
- Save your changes to the master configuration.
