Most of the message orient middleware architecture designs, while preparing the proof of concept for a new business domain they need to do multiple trails and errors. Configuring for such system resource task can be simplified with Python script.
is one of the phases on other hand is setting up the thresholds and quota is next phase.
Before entering into the scripting let us have brief JMS details, the basic types of JMS message communications are two:
Usually JEE development lead or architect decides which kind of messaging could be suitable for the application. Once you got the “Sign-off” for the communication mechanism, the Middleware admin will be configuring the JMS system resources.
I like Jeff West video presentation about JMS Servers and their usage with uniform distributed Queue, Topic and newly introduced Partitioned distribution. For your reference embedding the video here.
Initially, we need a JMS persistence store configuration using WLST script, that enables you to configure as many JMS servers and persistence stores as required for an application deployment. The persistence store can be created with File Store or JDBC store options. As per your domain requirement you can specify the total number in the properties file. Suppose Architect team decided to use only File Stores then we can set 0 to JDBC total store so that the loop will be disabled for that.
Generic advantage of this Script
Here most important thing is that when you wish that the persistance store could be a filestore then, it requires file path, if you are giving in the properties file assign absoulute path.

Before entering into the scripting let us have brief JMS details, the basic types of JMS message communications are two:
- Point to Point (PTP)
- Publisher/Subscriber (Pub/Sub)

What we do for JMS configuration using WLST?
The base JMS configuration is going to involve the following: a. Persistence store creation with Files: For each managed server where JMS servers configured there we need to create a File store. As best practice we create a dedicated folder where all the filestores can be stored per machine. Use the same directory structure for all machines where the filestores configured. b. Persistence store with JDBC: This we can use when your JMS message persistence requires huge message sizes. c. JMS server : we need to configure as many JMS servers as managed servers involve in JMS messagingfrom java.util import Properties
