Checking the Version of a subflow at run time

You can check the version of a subflow at run time by using the WebSphere® Message Broker Console or the WebSphere Message Broker Explorer.

Before you begin

Set up the initial configuration. See Creating the initial configuration for the Error Handler sample.

About this task

Depending on how you have defined the version of a subflow during the development phase, you have different options to check the version of a subflow at run time:
  • If you defined a keyword in the Label property of a Passthrough node, you can use the WebSphere Message Broker Console or the WebSphere Message Broker Explorer.
  • If you added a Passthrough node to the subflow with a keyword as the node name, you can use the WebSphere Message Broker Console or the WebSphere Message Broker Explorer.
  • If you set the Version property of the subflow, you can use WebSphere Message Broker Explorer to see the subflow version.

Procedure

To check the version of a subflow at run time, choose one of the following options:

  1. In the WebSphere Message Broker Console, run the mqsireadbar command. This command reads the properties stored in the BAR file.

    You run the command using the following syntax:

    mqsireadbar -b your BAR file name

    where your BAR file name is the name of the BAR file you have created to deploy into the run time.

    This figure shows the output of running the mqsireadbar command in the WebSphere Message Broker Console.

  2. In the WebSphere Message Broker Explorer, double-click a subflow. The MQ Explorer - Content tab opens where you can see the Properties QuickView.

    This figure displays the output of WebSphere Message Broker Explorer when you double-click the subflow name that is running in an integration node.

What to do next

Return to Updating a subflow.
