You must ensure that your brokers conform to the terms of your license.
For a full description of the broker operation mode, see Operation modes.
If you installed the Developer Edition, and you have now purchased a fully supported version of the product such as the Advanced Edition, you can keep the components and all the associated resources that you have already created and configured. Before you install the purchased product, uninstall the Developer Edition. You can retain your existing brokers and workspace, and any Developer mode brokers remain in Developer mode by default. You can leave these brokers in Developer mode, or you can use the mqsimode command to change the operation mode to reflect the license that you have purchased.
To change the operation mode, complete the following steps.
Check the license agreement file to ensure that your configuration conforms to any restrictions for development and unit test. Development and unit test conditions are described in License requirements.
If you reinstall IBM Integration Bus with the new physical or electronic packages for your purchased product, the default operation mode of all new brokers that you create has the value advanced. If you have purchased a full license, you can leave the operation mode as advanced; in all other cases you must change the mode of your brokers to conform to the license that you have purchased (standard, adapter, scale, or express).
If you have purchased IBM Integration Bus Remote Adapter Deployment, IBM Integration Bus Standard Edition, IBM Integration Bus Express Edition, or a license for IBM Integration Bus Scale mode, and installed components from the full runtime package, read the following information.
If you have purchased a full (unrestricted) license and installed components from the full runtime package, all brokers that you create have an operation mode set to the default value of advanced, which is the correct setting for your license.
Whenever you create a new broker, on existing installations or on different installations or computers, the operation mode is set to advanced, and you do not need to change this value.
You can continue to work with all the components and associated resources that you have already created. For example, after you have completed verification, you might keep the resources that you have created for further development and unit test (subject to any restrictions that apply for unit test environments, as indicated in your license). Development and unit test conditions are described in License requirements.
