JBoss ESB - multiple JBoss ESB servers to one JBoss Messaging Server

[heyyou]

Hello,

Has anyone attempted a configuration where you have a single JBoss Messaging Server

(JBoss AS 5.1 + JBoss Messaging) that is accessed by multiple JBoss ESB servers?

I know JBoss Messaging is included with JBoss ESB, but I have a need to run multiple

JBoss ESBs that read and write to JMS queues (JBoss Messaging) on the same JMS server.

In the SOA guide:

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_SOA_Platform/4.2/html/SOA_ESB_Administrators_Guide/ch01s03.html

it mentions to use

jndi-URL="localhost"

jndi-context-factory="org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory"

connection-factory="ConnectionFactory"

destination-type="queue"

destination-name="queue/A"

Does this go with the <jms-provider .. definition in the jboss-esb.xml file?

There is this posting in the JBoss ESB forum where some attempted a remote JBoss messaging server:

   http://community.jboss.org/thread/159732

but, he never got an answer.

What concerns me about the documentation and use of :

            jndi-URL="localhost" or jndi-URL="remote_ip"

so does this mean that jndi-URL defaults to jnp: and the default port?

Should you be using:

         jndi-URL="jnp://host:port"

or is this really expecting just a hostname or IP and no port?

Also, the documentation states that jboss-messaging-client.jar should be in the classpath.

You would think that is the case since JBossMessaging is the embedded and the default messaging.

Thank you,

Jon

hi,

About the jndi-URL it should be jndi-URL="jnp://127.0.0.1:1099", so you can include the port. Your other question puzzels me a bit because the whole idea of having JBossESB is to have the opportunity to have multiple .esb in your deployment. You can define a connection with your JMS server just by the following code:

<jms-provider connection-factory="ConnectionFactory" name="JMS-Provider"

>

or if you want transacted JMS (-JCA)

<jms-jca-provider connection-factory=

"XAConnectionFactory"

jndi-context-factory=

"org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory"

jndi-pkg-prefix=

"org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces"

name="JMS-JCA-Provider" transacted="true"

>

Are you experiencing some trouble when you deploy more then one .esb?

Hans
