Configurable services

Configurable services are typically runtime properties. You can use them to define properties that are related to external services on which the broker relies; for example, an SMTP server or a JMS provider.

Instead of defining properties on the node or message flow, you can create configurable services so that nodes and message flows can refer to them to find properties at run time. If you use this method, you can change the values of attributes for a configurable service on the broker, which then affects the behavior of a node or message flow without the need for redeployment.

For most types of configurable service, your changes will take effect from the next time a message flow that uses the configurable service is called. For some types of configurable service, for which it is explicitly stated in the documentation, you must stop and start the integration server for the change to take effect.

You can use the IBM® Integration Explorer to view, add, modify and delete configurable services, see Using the IBM Integration Explorer to work with configurable services.

Alternatively, use the following commands to work with configurable services:

Use the mqsicreateconfigurableservice command to create configurable services.
Use the mqsideleteconfigurableservice command to delete configurable services.
Use the mqsichangeproperties command to set attributes after you have created the configurable services.
Use the mqsireportproperties command to report attributes.

For a full list of configurable services and their properties, see Configurable services properties.
