Configure dynamic clustered JMS

Before you begin

Create a dynamic cluster, see Create dynamic clusters.


Dynamic clustered JMS allows you to configure JMS resource artifacts for every server in a cluster by targeting JMS servers and persistent stores directly to a cluster.

To configure dynamic clustered JMS:

  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, expand Services > Messaging and select JMS Servers.
  3. On the Summary of JMS Servers page, click New.

    Note: Once you create a JMS server, you cannot rename it. Instead, you must delete it and create another one that uses the new name.

  4. On the Create a JMS Server page:
    1. In Name, enter a name for the JMS server.
    2. Scope -- specifies if the JMS server is accessible within the domain, a partition, or a resource group template.
    3. Click Next to select a persistent store.
    4. In Persistent Store, click the Create a New Store button to create a store on the fly. Target the persistent store to the same cluster you will target the JMS server. If you leave this field set to none, then the JMS server will use the default file store that is automatically configured on each targeted server instance. For more information about configuring highly available JMS servers using custom stores, see Configure custom persistent stores.

      Resource group and resource group template scoped JMS servers inherit their target from the associated Virtual Target. Use a custom store with Distribution Policy of Singleton to host stand-alone (non-distributred) destintions. Use a store with Distribution Policy of Distributed to host distributed destinations.

    5. Click Next to proceed to the targeting page.
  5. On the Select Targets page, select the cluster on which to deploy the JMS server.
  6. Click Finish.
  7. On the Summary of JMS Servers page, click the new JMS server to open it.

    There are many optional parameters that can be set on the JMS server configuration tabs, including General configuration parameters, Thresholds and Quotas, Logging, and Server Session Pools. For more information about configuring these parameters, see Configure JMS servers.

  8. After modifying any values, click Save.
  9. 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).
