A JMS system module is described by the jms-system-resource MBean in the config.xml file.

Basic components of a jms-system-resource MBean are:

• name: Name of the module.

• target: Server, cluster, or migratable target the module is targeted to.

• sub-deployment: A mechanism by which JMS system module resources (such as queues, topics, and connection factories) are grouped and targeted to a server resource (such as a JMS server instance, WebLogic Server instance, or cluster).

• descriptor-file-name: Path and file-name of the system module file.

The JMS resources of a system module are located in a module descriptor file that conforms to the weblogic-jmsmd.xml schema. In Figure 6-1, the module is named myModule-jms.xml and it contains JMS system resource definitions for a connection factory and a queue. The sub-deployment-name element is used to group and target JMS resources in the myModule-jms.xml file to targets in the config.xml. You have to provide a value for the sub-deployment-name element when using WLST. For more information on subdeployments, see JMS System Module and Resource Subdeployment Targeting. In Figure 6-1, the sub-deployment-name DeployToJMSServer1 is used to group and target the connection factory CConfac and the queue CQueue in the myModule-jms module.

For more information about how to use JMS resources, see What Are JMS Configuration Resources?.

Description of "Figure 6-1 Subdeployment Architecture"

Creating JMS servers and JMS system module resources using WLST include the basic tasks of starting an edit session, creating a JMS system module, and creating a JMS server resource.

1. Get the WebLogic Server MBean object for the server that you want to configure resources. For example:

   servermb=getMBean("Servers/examplesServer")
       if servermb is None:
           print '@@@ No server MBean found'
   

2. Create your system resource. For example:

   jmsMySystemResource = create(myJmsSystemResource,"JMSSystemResource")
   

3. Target your system resource to a WebLogic Server instance. For example:

   jmsMySystemResource.addTarget(servermb)
   

4. Get your system resource object. For example:

   theJMSResource = jmsMySystemResource.getJMSResource()
   

5. Create resources for the module, such as queues, topics, and connection factories. For example:

   connfact1 = theJMSResource.createConnectionFactory(factoryName)
   jmsqueue1 = theJMSResource.createQueue(queueName)
   

6. Configure resource attributes. For example:

   connfact1.setJNDIName(factoryName)
   jmsqueue1.setJNDIName(queueName)
   

7. Create a subdeployment name for system resources. See Understanding JMS System Modules and Subdeployments. For example:

   connfact1.setSubDeploymentName('DeployToJMSServer1')
   jmsqueue1.setSubDeploymentName('DeployToJMSServer1')
   

8. Create a JMS server. For example:

   jmsserver1mb = create(jmsServerName,'JMSServer')
   

9. Target your JMS server to a WebLogic Server instance or cluster. For example:

   jmsserver1mb.addTarget(servermb)
   

10. Create a subdeployment object using the value you provided for the sub-deployment-name element. This step groups the system resources in module to a sub-deployment element in the config.xml. For example:

    subDep1mb = jmsMySystemResource.createSubDeployment('DeployToJMSServer1')
    

11. Target the subdeployment to a server resource such as a JMS server instance, WebLogic Server instance, or cluster. For example:

    subDep1mb.addTarget(jmsserver1mb)

    //Step 10

    //Step 11
    subDep1mb.addTarget(jmsserver1mb)

You can modify or monitor JMS objects and attributes by using the appropriate method available from the MBean.

.
.
print '@@@ delete system resource'
jmsMySystemResource = delete("CapiQueue-jms","JMSSystemResource")
print '@@@ delete server'
jmsserver1mb = delete(jmsServerName,'JMSServer')

Learn about best practices when using WLST to configure JMS servers and JMS system module resources.

• Trap for Null MBean objects (such as servers, JMS servers, modules) before trying to manipulate the MBean object.

• Use a meaningful name when providing a subdeployment name. For example, the subdeployment name DeployToJMSServer1 tells you that all subdeployments with this name are deployed to JMSServer1.
