ALSB Configuration page

An ALSB configuration project is a grouping of ALSB projects and resources destined for a server, a location for system resources (SMTP, UDDI, and such), and a container for validation; for example, a resource in a project associated with one ALSB configuration cannot refer to a resource in a project associated to another ALSB configuration.

Use this page to create a new ALSB configuration project (in the New AquaLogic Service Bus Configuration Project wizard) or to to configure an existing one (in the Properties for ALSB Configuration editor).

The preserve, session, and customization file settings are used when publishing an ALSB configuration to the server, and used as defaults when configuring the Export wizard - Export to Server - Select Resources page.

Option
Description
Configuration name
Enter a name for this ALSB configuration or keep the default.
Advanced Options
Preserve environment variable values
Select this check box when you are re-importing a resource but want to preserve environment variable values in the existing resource.
Preserve security and policy settings
Select this check box to preserve the security configuration (excluding access control policies) and the references to the WS-policies bound directly to the service (instead of bound to the WSDL).
Preserve credentials
(user name and password)
Select this check box to preserve PKI credentials in service key providers, user name and passwords in service accounts, and user name and password credentials in SMTP servers, JNDI providers, and UDDI registries.
Discard session if activation fails
Select this check box to discard the session if the activation fails (for example, due to conflicts). For more information, see Activating Sessions in Using the AquaLogic Service Bus Console.
Session Name
The session name.
Description
The session description.
Deployment customization file
Specify a customization.xml file or click Browse, locate the file, then click Open. For information on customization, see Creating Customization Files in Using the AquaLogic Service Bus Console.
Keystore file
Specify a keystore.jks file or click Browse, locate the file, then click Open.
The key store settings are used when configuring a service key provider.
Password
Enter the password that you use to secure access to the key store.
Server
The name of the server associated with this ALSB configuration. This setting is automatically configured unless there is more than one server from which to choose. When multiple servers are associated with the same ALSB configuration, use the drop-down list to select the server you want to associate with this ALSB configuration.
The server setting is only used for transport specific configuration, when the transport benefits from being connected to a server (for example, when configuring the dispatch policy setting in the HTTP transport).
