Hi,

the best, for reaching the JORAM experts, is to send your questions to the [e-mail] list. Thanks.

I forward your question to the list by the way...

I see many JBoss forums about using WebSphere MQ as JMS provider in JBoss. I am wondering if you managed to use WebSphere MQ XA classes, or not? There seemed to have been some problems regarding transactions...

Thanks,
Frederic.

I have no experience with WebSphere MQ.

I have spent time to integrate Joram with JBoss, because I find good references to it on the web and it is under the LGPL license.

I agree with this answer, but it is somewhat incomplete. It does make sense to reuse the Joram clustering.

What I am looking for however, is a way to programatically create and update the Joram cluster configuration.
Instead of requiring an explicit a3servers.xml, I would like to take the cluster partition information from the existing JBoss Clustering infrastructure.

This will make the configuration of the Joram JMS cluster consistent with the other JBoss HA services.

The HAJMS MBean will take partition name as a parameter.
The IP addresses participating in the cluster partition and the server IDs will be derived and passed on to the Joram AgentServer at run time, instead of deployment time.

There is now an experimental HA extension of JBossMQ for Branch 3.2.
