Configuring authorization for asynchronous event delivery with CEI (deprecated)

If you are planning to receive events that are emitted from an application that uses an event emitter factory with asynchronous delivery, and you did not use the wbmDeployCEIEventService AdminTask to set up your environment, you must configure the IBM® Business Monitor server to communicate with the common event infrastructure (CEI) server.

Before you begin

If you used the wbmDeployCEIEventService AdminTask to set up your environment, this configuration is done for you. You must perform this task to configure the authorization information for JMS only if you are configuring your own CEI server or using a non-default event emitter factory rather than the Default Common Event Infrastructure emitter.

Before you begin this task, you must log in to the WebSphere® Application Server administrative console.

About this task

As an alternative to using the administrative console, you can run the wsadmin task setEventServiceJmsAuthAlias to perform the steps that are provided in this topic.

Using the WebSphere Application Server administrative console, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Specify the authorization aliases for the queue connection factory.
    1. In the navigation panel, click Resources > JMS > Queue connection factories.
    2. Click CommonEventInfrastructure_QueueCF in the list of queue connection factories.
    3. In the Security Settings section, select an alias from the Authentication alias for XA recovery list. The alias must have a user that has a bus connector role for the CEI bus. (In Service Integration > Buses, click the Security column for the bus that is described as CommonEventInfrastructure Bus.)
    4. Select an alias from the Container-managed authentication alias list. Typically you can select the same alias as in the previous substep.
    5. Click OK and save your changes to the master configuration.
  2. Specify an authorization alias for the activation specification.
    1. In the navigation panel, click Resources > JMS > Activation specifications.
    2. Click CommonEventInfrastructure_ActivationSpec in the list of activation specifications.
    3. In the Security Settings section, select an alias from the Authentication alias list.
    4. Click OK and save your changes to the master configuration.
  3. Specify the authorization aliases for the topic connection factories.
    1. In the navigation panel, click Resources > JMS > Topic connection factories.
    2. Click CommonEventInfrastructure_AllEventsTopicCF in the list of topic connection factories.
    3. In the Security Settings section, select an alias from the Authentication alias for XA recovery list. The alias must have a user that has a bus connector role for the CEI bus. (In Service Integration > Buses, click the Security column for the bus that is described as CommonEventInfrastructure Bus.)
    4. Select an alias from the Container-managed authentication alias list. Typically you can select the same alias as in the previous substep.
    5. Click OK and save your changes to the master configuration.
