Configuration

You must explicitly configure each routed queue in queues.conf—clients cannot create routed queues dynamically.

Warning: Dynamic routed queues are not supported. In a future release, the server will consider a routed queue with a wildcard as a misconfiguration and will fail to start when startup_abort_list includes CONFIG_ERRORS.

You may use the administration tool or API to configure routed queues; see addprop queue and create queue.

To configure a routed queue, specify the queue name and the server name of the queue owner; for example, on server P, configure:

 Q1@R
Note: It is legal to use this notation even for the home queue. The queue owner recognizes its own name, and ignores the location designation (@R).

It is illegal to configure a routed queue as exclusive.
