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. For details about using the TEA shell, see the "Shell Commands" section in the TIBCO Enterprise Administrator User Guide.

Before you begin 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 EMS server destination. "MyServer" is the name of the EMS server where "NewQueue" gets created.

    Procedure
  1. Connect to the EMS server using the terminal program and open a shell window.
  2. Change directories to EMS/MyServer/destinations/queues.
  3. Enter the command to create the new queue and press Enter: 
    createEmsQueue NewQueue

    You must see a message saying "Queue "NewQueue" created successfully".

  4. Navigate to the TEA user interface and refresh the screen where all queues are listed. Your newly created queue is listed there.
