Configuring a JMS topic connection factory, for WebSphere MQ

Use this task to browse or configure a JMS topic connection factory for publish/subscribe messaging with WebSphere MQ as a messaging provider. This task contains an optional step for you to create a new JMS topic connection factory.

Why and when to perform this task

With JMS 1.1, the preferred approach is to use unified JMS connection factories instead of the domain-specific JMS queue connection factory and JMS topic connection factory. If you want to configure a unified JMS connection factory, see Configuring a unified JMS connection factory, for WebSphere MQ.

To configure a topic connection factory for use with the WebSphere MQ as a messaging provider, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:

Steps for this task

  1. Display the WebSphere MQ messaging provider. In the navigation pane, expand Resources > JMS Providers > WebSphere MQ.
  2. Optional: Change the Scope setting to the level at which the connection factory is visible to applications.
  3. In the contents pane, under Additional Properties, click WebSphere MQ Topic Connection Factories This displays a table listing any existing JMS topic connection factories, with a summary of their properties.
  4. To browse or change an existing JMS topic connection factory, click its name in the list. Otherwise, to create a new connection factory, complete the following steps:
    1. Click New in the content pane.
    2. Specify the following required properties. You can specify other properties, as described in a later step.
      Name
      The name by which this destination is known for administrative purposes within IBM WebSphere Application Server.
      JNDI Name
      The JNDI name that is used to bind the destination into the name space.
      CCSID
      The coded character set identifier for use with the WebSphere MQ queue manager; for example: 850.
    3. Click Apply. This defines the destination to WebSphere Application Server, and enables you to browse or change additional properties.
  5. Optional: Change properties for the topic connection factory, according to your needs.
  6. Optional: Change connection pool properties and session pool properties, according to your needs.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Save any changes to the master configuration.
  9. To have the changed configuration take effect, stop then restart the application server.
