WebSphere WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, Version 6.0.1 Operating Systems: AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, Windows

Creating the initial SCA.SYSTEM bus topology

When you create a stand-alone server profile or deployment manager profile, you get a separate administrative cell. The service integration bus SCA.SYSTEM.cell_name.Bus is created automatically for you to deploy SCA modules into the cell.

Before you begin

If you create a Complete (default) installation for WebSphere ESB, you get a stand-alone server in its own administrative cell. The server that is assigned to the SCA.SYSTEM service integration bus for the cell.

If you create a deployment manager profile, you need to create managed nodes in the cell then create servers or server clusters as members of the SCA.SYSTEM bus.

Before continuing with this task, consider whether you are likely to need more than one server or server cluster in the bus environment. In a stand-alone server profile, there can be only the one server. If you are likely to want several servers, or server clusters, in the same bus environment, you should consider creating a deployment manager cell with managed nodes. You can also create several stand-alone servers on one or machines.

Why and when to perform this task

Each stand-alone node or deployment manager cell forms a separate administrative cell that has its own service integration bus called SCA.SYSTEM.cell_name.Bus that is used to deploy SCA modules within the cell.

Use this task to create the SCA.SYSTEM bus for an administrative cell, with one ESB server as a bus member. The SCA.SYSTEM bus and server are created with values for only some of the important properties, with other properties taking default values.

You can change the configuration of the buses; for example, to change bus properties or, for a deployment manager cell, add servers or server clusters as bus members.

To create the SCA.SYSTEM bus with one server as a bus member, complete one of the following steps:

Alternatives for this task

Result

When you log in to the administrative console for the cell, you can see the SCA.SYSTEM bus in the list on the Service integration > Buses page. You can also see the new server in the list on the Servers > Application Servers page.

What to do next

After starting the new server, you can use the SCA.SYSTEM bus to deploy SCA modules.

You can change the configuration of the buses; for example, to add servers or server clusters to a deployment manager cell.
