JMS Connection Factory

A JMS Connection Factory creates an outbound connection to a JMS server.

Property Editable? Required? Accepts SVars? Description
Connection Factory JNDI Name Y Y Y JNDI name of the JMS Connection Factory that points to a particular queue or topic.
Maximum Pool Size Y Y Y (Optional) This property is available when creating a new JMS Connection Factory Resource Template. It can also be updated for an existing JMS Connection Factory Resource Template.

If no value is specified, the default value for Maximum Pool Size is 20. You can override the default value using the property com.tibco.amf.sharedresource.jms.connection.pool.maxsize in SystemNode.tra. The value can be specified in the TRA file as follows:

java.property.com.tibco.amf.sharedresource.jms.connection.pool.maxsize=<new_value>

and also using the TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator UI:

  • property: com.tibco.amf.sharedresource.jms.connection.pool.maxsize
  • value: <new_value>

When you change the Maximum Pool Size of an existing Resource Template, the UI prompts you to reinstall all Resource Instances of that Resource Template. After the Resource Instances are re-installed, the new value of Maximum Pool Size is applied to runtime.

The SystemNode should be restarted after setting the Maximum Pool Size property.

NOTE: While creating a resource template, the value provided using the UI or CLI (via attribute maxPoolSize) takes precedence over the value specified in the SystemNode TRA file. The maxPoolSize attribute can be specified as follows. Refer to the <TIBCO_HOME>/administrator/<version_number>/samples/jmssr_data.xml configuration file for details.

<ResourceTemplate xsi:type="amxdata_jmsssr:JNDIConnectionFactoryResourceTemplate" name="NewJndiConnectionFactorySharedResource" jndiName="GenericConnectionFactory" jndiConnectionConfigurationName="NewJndiConnectionConfigurationSharedResource" description="JndiConnectionFactory" xa="false" maxPoolSize="20">

JNDI Connection Configuration Y Y N The name of a JNDI Connection Configuration resource.
Note: You can use a substitution variable for JNDI connection configuration in the JMS Connection Factory resource template in TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator.
