Adding an execution group to a broker

This topic describes how to add additional execution groups to a broker.

Before you start:

When you create a broker it has a default execution group. If you want additional execution groups you must create them explicitly.

For more details about why you might want to create multiple execution groups, see Execution groups.

If you prefer, you can create an execution group using the command line; see Adding an execution group to a broker using the command line.

To add an execution group to a broker:

  1. Switch to the Broker Administration perspective.
  2. In the Domains view, expand the default configuration manager.
  3. Right-click Broker Topology, and click New > Execution Group.
  4. In the Create an Execution Group wizard:
    1. Select the broker to which you want to add the execution group.

      If the selected broker domain is not connected, a Confirm Connection dialog prompts you to connect to the domain. If you click OK, the domain is connected and populated with the defined brokers. If you click Cancel at this prompt, the wizard remains open.

    2. Enter the Execution Group name.
    3. Select the Processor Architecture for this execution group to specify if the execution group process runs as a 32-bit or as a 64-bit application.

      To create a 64-bit execution group, the broker's queue manager must also be 64-bit.

      You can change the default value for this option, which is initially set to 32-bit; click Window > Preferences > Broker Administration and update the setting for Execution Group Platform Processor Architecture.

  5. Click Next.
  6. Optional: Enter a short or long description for the execution group.
  7. Click Finish to add the execution group to the broker.

In the Domains view, the execution group is added to the appropriate broker.
