WebSphere MQ resource custom properties settings page
Use this page to specify custom properties that your enterprise information system (EIS) requires for the resource providers and resource factories that you configure. For example, most database vendors require additional custom properties for data sources that access the database.
To view this administrative console page, complete the following steps:
- In the navigation pane, click Resources > JMS->JMS providers.
- If appropriate, in the content pane, change the scope of the WebSphere MQ messaging provider.
- In the content pane, click the WebSphere MQ messaging provider to support the JMS destination.
- In the content pane, under Additional Properties, click the type of resource to change, for example Queues.
- Click the name of the resource to work with.
- In the content pane, under General Properties, complete the groups of fields, for example Administration and WebSphere MQ Queue.
- In the content pane, under Additional Properties, click Custom properties to display a list of the custom properties of a WebSphere MQ resource.
A resource for use with the WebSphere MQ messaging provider has the following custom properties.
- The property values specified must match the values that you specified when configuring WebSphere MQ for JMS resources. For more information about configuring WebSphere MQ for JMS resources, see the Using Java section of the WebSphere MQ information center.
- In WebSphere MQ, names can have a maximum of 48 characters, with the exception of channels, which have a maximum of 20 characters.
