Hi, I had a question about the way in which WBI MB 6.0 manages HTTP sessions/persistemce. Are there any features in MB that support this and how robust is it. I did a bit of preliminary searching and didnt find anyhting conclusive. If you could point me in the right direction, that would be great. |

Hi j1,
Message broker uses an input queue in the backend for fetching the HTTP requests....so if u put multiple messages on the URL, they are all lying on the queue...
If u define multiple instances for the flow then the messages are serviced all at the same time....multiple sessions are created by making multiple logical ports from the single physical port of the broker....
Persistence.....i suppose if you make the input queue persistent, then u might get what u want...but i have not tested for this...Though, i think that since HTTP is a request reply protocol(atleast in MB) if you do not get a reply u will know that the request failed...and if you persist with the request message also, it would not make sense as the time within which the user wanted the reply is long gone....
Regards. |

Talking about persistence of session information... I understand that the session information should be persisted to a queue and then picked up when needed again using the correlationId ?

You'll need websphere application server to do that probably. |

First off - HTTP Session persistence has nothing to do with MQ persistence.
Secondly - I believe the bipHttpListener uses catalina under the covers. Otherwise why would <mqsi_install_root> contain a "catalina" folder.
You could dig around in the mqsi_install_root and see if you can find the various configuration files that control how catalina handles session persistence.
But I'm sure that changing any of that would not be supported.
You're vastly better off putting a real webserver of some sort in front of your biphttplisteners. IHS comes to mind... _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |
