Mediating a destination
Use the administrative console to mediate a service integration destination with a mediation hosted by service integration. A mediation point is created for the mediated destination on the bus member where we want the mediation to run, and is used to process messages at runtime.
Ensure that the following resources exist:
- The mediation we want to apply to the destination. For more information, see Configure a new mediation.
- The bus member where the mediation point is to be created.
We can mediate a destination with a single mediation only, but we can associate the same mediation with more than one destination. This scenario mediates a destination with a service integration mediation point, and a service integration mediation. To mediate a destination using an IBM MQ program, or assign it to an IBM MQ queue point, see Mediating a destination using an IBM MQ queue as the mediation point.
Tasks
- Click Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Destination resources] Destinations. The bus destinations for the selected bus are displayed.
- Select the destination we want to mediate, and click Mediate. A list of available mediations is displayed.
- Select the mediation to associate with the destination, and click Next.
- Select the bus member where we want the mediation to run, and click Next.
- Click Finish to mediate the destination, or Previous to make any changes to the selections.
- Save changes to the master configuration.
Your chosen destination is mediated with your chosen mediation, and a mediation point is created for the destination on the bus member.
What to do next
We can control some aspects of how the mediation processes messages at the mediation point. For example, whether the mediation run within a global transaction, or processes multiple messages concurrently. See Modify the properties of a mediation.
