Configure general topic properties

Before you begin


After you create a topic, you can define general property values, such as selecting a destination key for sorting messages as they arrive on the topic, or a selecting JMS template if you are using one to configure properties for multiple topics.

To configure general values for a topic:

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
  2. In the Administration Console, navigate to the topic resource that you want to configure:
  3. On the Configuration: General page:
    1. In JNDI Name, enter a name for accessing the topic within the JNDI namespace.
    2. In Template, select a pre-configured JMS template from which the topic will inherit its default property values.
    3. In Destination Keys, select a pre-configured sort key for sorting the messages that arrive on the topic by moving a destination key from the Available column into the Chosen column.

    For more information about these fields, see Configuration Options.

  4. Save your changes:
  5. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
    Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
