The information contained here is delivered with Fix Pack V6.0.0.2. The delivery date is July 2006. This information center is integrated with the Message Brokers Toolkit.

The content of each of these information centers for any given delivery date is identical.
Topics that have been added since the previous
release of this information, and updated sections within topics, are highlighted

If you are migrating resources from previous versions, see Migrating and upgrading.
The Contents pane on the left lists the categories of task information available; for example, Migrating and Developing applications. Each task category also contains explanations of the concepts related to those tasks, such as Coexistence, Message flows, Publish/subscribe, and so on.
Click the top-level topic that you are interested in. If it describes and lists information that covers your area of interest, expand the section to read the associated concepts that give an overview of what you need to understand to perform tasks in this area. It is important that you are familiar with the concepts and terminology associated with the tasks before you start.
The navigation tree in the Contents pane provides a framework in which you can start to understand the tasks and the context in which you will complete them. Follow the related links at the end of each task to find information about other related tasks. You can move back and forward to revisit topics, and use the synchronize button if you have moved to a different area of the table of contents and you want to check where you are.
Expand the Reference section to find reference information that is relevant to the task area that you are interested in. You can see that the section within the Reference section largely correspond to the task categories. You will probably have to refer to one or more of these reference topics to complete any particular task.
For more information, see Task, concept, and reference topics. When you are more familiar with what information is available, and where to find it, try using the index and the search facility, which are described below.
If you are familiar with what information is available, and where to find it in this information center, you probably have a specific piece of information in mind. You can navigate through to the information in the Content pane, or you can take a more direct route to the information. There are two direct routes to finding specific information in the information center:
Enter your search string in the Search box, then click Go. If you string includes blanks, and you want the whole string treated as one string, enclose it in double quotation marks. The search results are presented in the Search Results pane on the left, and you can switch between the Search Results pane and the Content pane, which contains the navigation tree, by clicking the tabs at the bottom of the pane.
You can limit your search to a particular area of the navigation tree, which can make a search much quicker and produce fewer results. To limit the search, click Search scope, then click the New button. Select the area or areas you want to include in your new scope and enter a name for the scope so that you can reuse it another time.
The topics in this information center are divided into task, concept, and reference topics.
Task topics provide steps or actions that tell you how to complete the tasks to establish and maintain your broker environment.
Concept topics provide definitions and background information that help you to understand the product and the ways in which you can use it to solve your business problems. Check the Glossary for a definition of many of the terms introduced in these topics.
If you are a new user, these topics provide a good introduction to the product and its facilities. Expand Product Overview to read about the product, and what is new in this release. You can also read about, and invoke, the Quick Tour, an online guided introduction to the product components and options. Access the samples that are supplied too, to understand more about how your applications can exploit the broker function.
Reference topics provide supporting information that help you to complete the tasks. For example, they provide lists of commands and tables of options and parameters.
You can provide feedback on the topics in this information center. For example, you can report errors, identify missing information, or make suggestions for improvement. There is a feedback link at the end of every topic; click this link to display a feedback form for the topic you are viewing. Your feedback is logged in a database and forwarded to the author of the topic.
