Using the TEA Shell to Create Queues and Topics

You can use the TEA Shell command line interface to create Queues and Topics under Destination. The TEA Shell is based on remote SSH. Refer to the TIBCO Enterprise Administrator User's Guide for details on using the TEA Shell.

Prerequisites

You must have a terminal program, such as PuTTY, installed on your machine.

You can use the following commands:

createemsqueue <queue-name>
purgeemsqueue <queue-name>
deleteemsqueue <queue-name>
createemstopic <topic-name>
purgeemstopic <topic-name>
deleteemstopic <topic-name>

The steps below walk you through an example for creating a queue called "NewQueue" in an TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ server destination. "MyServer" is the name of the TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ server where "NewQueue" gets created.

Procedure

Connect to the TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ server using the terminal program and open a shell window.
Change directories to EMS/MyServer/destinations/queues.
Enter the command to create the new queue and press Enter:
```
createEmsQueue NewQueue
```
You should see a message saying "Queue "NewQueue" created successfully"
Go to the TEA user interface and refresh the screen where all queues are listed. Your newly created queue will be listed there.
