Default Provider topic connection factory settings

Use this panel to view or change the configuration properties of the selected JMS topic connection factory for use with the internal product Java™ Message Service (JMS) provider that is installed with WebSphere® Application Server. These configuration properties control how connections are created between the JMS provider and the service integration bus that it uses.

To view this Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT) page, click File > Open. After you browse for an EAR file, click Open. Expand the selected JAR file > Messaging Providers > Default Provider. Right-click Topic Connection Factories and click New. The following fields appear on the General tab.

Settings that have a default value display that appropriate value. Any settings that have fixed values have a drop down menu.

Name

The name of the topic connection factory.

Data type String
Description

A description of this topic connection factory for administrative purposes within IBM® WebSphere Application Server.

Data type String
JNDI Name

The JNDI name that is used to match this topic connection factory definition to the deployment descriptor. This entry is a resource-ref name.

Data type String
User Name

The User Name used, with the Password property, for authentication if the calling application does not provide a userid and password explicitly. If this field is used, then the Properties field UserName is ignored.

If you specify a value for the User Name property, you must also specify a value for the Password property.

The connection factory User Name and Password properties are used if the calling application does not provide a userid and password explicitly. If a user name and password are specified, then an authentication alias is created for the factory where the password is encrypted.

Data type String
Password

The password used to create an encrypted. If you complete this field, then the Password field in the Properties box is ignored.

If you specify a value for the User Name property, you must also specify a value for the Password property.

Data type String
Re-Enter Password

Confirms the password.

Bus Name

The name of the bus to which the topic connection factory connects.

Data type String
Client Identifier

The name of the client. This field is required for durable topic subscriptions.

Data type String
Nonpersistent Messaging Reliability

The reliability applied to nonpersistent JMS messages sent using this connection factory.

If you want different reliability delivery options for individual JMS destinations, you can set this property to As bus destination. The reliability is then defined by the Reliability property of the bus destination to which the JMS destination is assigned.

Default ReliablePersistent
Range
None
There is no message reliability for nonpersistent messages. If a nonpersistent message cannot be delivered, it is discarded.
Best effort nonpersistent
Messages are never written to disk, and are thrown away if memory cache overruns.
Express nonpersistent
Messages are written asynchronously to persistent storage if memory cache overruns, but are not kept over server restarts.
Reliable nonpersistent
Messages can be lost if a messaging engine fails, and can be lost under normal operating conditions.
Reliable persistent
Messages can be lost if a messaging engine fails, but are not lost under normal operating conditions.
Assured persistent
Highest degree of reliability where assured message delivery is supported.
As Bus destination
Use the delivery option configured for the bus destination.
Persistent Message Reliability

The reliability applied to persistent JMS messages sent using this connection factory.

If you want different reliability delivery options for individual JMS destinations, you can set this property to As bus destination. The reliability is then defined by the Reliability property of the bus destination to which the JMS destination is assigned.

Default ReliablePersistent
Range
None
There is no message reliability for nonpersistent messages. If a nonpersistent message cannot be delivered, it is discarded.
Best effort nonpersistent
Messages are never written to disk, and are thrown away if memory cache overruns.
Express nonpersistent
Messages are written asynchronously to persistent storage if memory cache overruns, but are not kept over server restarts.
Reliable nonpersistent
Messages can be lost if a messaging engine fails, and can be lost under normal operating conditions.
Reliable persistent
Messages can be lost if a messaging engine fails, but are not lost under normal operating conditions.
Assured persistent
Highest degree of reliability where assured message delivery is supported.
As Bus destination
Use the delivery option configured for the bus destination.
Durable Subscription Home

The name of the durable subscription home.

Data type String
Share durable subscriptions

Controls whether or not durable subscriptions are shared across connections with members of a server cluster.

Normally, only one session at a time can have a TopicSubscriber for a particular durable subscription. This property enables you to override this behavior, to enable a durable subscription to have multiple simultaneous consumers.

Data type Selection list
Default In cluster
Range
In cluster
Allows sharing of durable subscriptions when connections are made from within a server cluster.
Always shared
Durable subscriptions can be shared across connections.
Never shared
Durable subscriptions are never shared across connections.
Read Ahead

Controls the read-ahead optimization during message delivery.

Default Default
Range Default, AlwaysOn and AlwaysOff
Target

The name of the Workload Manager target group containing the messaging engine.

Data type String
Target Type

The type of Workload Manager target group that contains the messaging engine.

Default BusMember
Range BusMember, Custom, ME
Target Significance

The priority of significance for the target specified.

Default Preferred
Range Preferred, Required
Target Inbound Transport Chain

The name of the protocol that resolves to a group of messaging engines.

Data type String
Provider Endpoints

The list of comma separated endpoints used to connect to a bootstrap server.

Type a comma-separated list of endpoint triplets with the syntax: host:port:protocol.

Example 
localhost:7777:BootstrapBasicMessaging
where

BootstrapBasicMessaging corresponds to the remote protocol InboundBasicMessaging (JFAP-TCP/IP).
Default
  • If the host name is not specified, then the default localhost is used as a default value.
  • If the port number is not specified, then 7276 is used as a default value.
  • If the chain name is not specified, a predefined chain, such as BootstrapBasicMessaging, is used as a default value.
Connection Proximity

The proximity that the messaging engine should have to the requester.

Default Bus
Range Bus, Host, Cluster, Server
Temporary Topic Name Prefix

The prefix to apply to the names of temporary topics. This name is a maximum of 12 characters.
