Configuring Message Journaling

Enabling Journaling flag

In order to replicate messages on a destination, the Journaling function on that destination has to be turned ON. This can be done through Studio in online mode or from the Fiorano Web Management Tool. Given below is the procedure that can be followed to enable journaling on Queues. Similar procedures can be followed for Topics also.

To use the Web Management Tool, click on JMX > ConfigureFMQServer and go through the path Fiorano > mq > ptp > PtPManager > QueueingSubSystem to click on the Operations tab. Call on the operation setEnableJournalingOnQueue and set the values for the parameters queueName and enablejournaling.

JournalingQueuePrefix Parameter

An additional parameter used in the MessageJournaling, that is, JournalingQueuePrefix/JournalingTopicPrefix. This is used as the prefix for a name when creating Journaling destination for a particular destination. This can be configured from Studio in both Offline and Online modes.
