Use this task to configure a JMS topic for publish/subscribe messaging with the default messaging provider.
This task configures a JMS topic to use a topic space destination on a service integration bus. The topic space (a hierarchical collection of topics) is the virtual location on the bus where messages are stored and processed for the JMS topic. If we have not created the required destination, use the task described in Configure a destination for publish/subscribe messaging. To configure a JMS topic for the default messaging provider, use the dmgr console to complete the following steps. This task contains an optional step for you to create a new JMS topic.
- Display the default messaging provider. In the navigation pane, expand Resources -> JMS -> JMS providers.
- Select the default provider for which to configure a topic.
- Optional: Change the Scope check box to set the level at which the topic is to be visible, according to your needs.
- In the content pane, under the Additional properties heading, click Topics. This displays any existing JMS topics for the default messaging provider in the content pane.
- Display the properties of the JMS topic. To display an existing JMS topic, click one of the names listed.
Alternatively, to create a new JMS topic, click New, then specify the following required properties:
- Name
- Type the name by which the topic is known for administrative purposes.
- JNDI name
- Type the JNDI name used to bind the topic into the namespace.
- Topic name
- Type the name of the topic (as a qualifier in the topic space) that this JMS topic is to use.
- Topic space
- Type the name of the topic space that this JMS topic is to use.
- Specify properties for the JMS topic, according to your needs.
- Click OK.
- Save your changes to the master configuration.
