To Enable an SSL-Based Connection Service in the Broker

To enable an SSL-based connection service in the broker, you need to add the corresponding service or services to the imq.service.activelist property.

1. Open the broker’s instance configuration file.

   The instance configuration file is located in a directory identified by the name of the broker instance (instanceName) with which the configuration file is associated (see Appendix A, Distribution-Specific Locations of Message Queue Data):

         …/instances/instanceName/props/config.properties
   

2. Add an entry (if one does not already exist) for the imq.service.activelist property and include the desired SSL-based service(s) in the list.

   By default, the property includes the jms and admin connection services. Add the SSL-based service or services you wish to activate (ssljms, ssladmin, or both):

      imq.service.activelist=jms,admin,ssljms,ssladmin

   Note –

   The SSL-based cluster connection service is enabled using the imq.cluster.transport property rather than the imq.service.activelist property (see Cluster Connection Service Properties). To enable SSL for RMI-based JMX connectors, see SSL-Based JMX Connections.

3. Save and close the instance configuration file.
