    Looking for more information on how to setup JMS to use MSSQL rather than hypersonic on Jboss 5 / IdM 12.6 SP2.

     

    So far here's what I've found:

    http://www.ca.com/us/support/ca-support-online/product-content/knowledgebase-articles/tec563361.aspx

     

    CA Identity Manager High Availability & JBoss Clustering - IDMWORKS : Blog

     

    I don't think either of these documents are complete and would like more information on how to successfully implement this.

     

    Please do share, as this is a common problem with any CA IdM customer running on Jboss cluster. (which is a huge set of CA customers).

     

    Please respond with any questions or concerns.

    Thank you.

    Regards,

    Hi Chris,

     

    Good to hear from you.

    Usually the JBoss messaging solution is not strictly within the CA responsibility.

    I can suggest the following URL:

    https://developer.jboss.org/message/809461 It shows the steps to configure MSSQL as the messaging repository.

    You can use that along with the CA technical documents you mentioned.

     

    I do not see any other article that explains more other than the two you mentioned.

     

    If there is a specific issue, please feel free to open a support case so we can assist.

    I do not know how to implement this in a HA environment, but this is what I did on my single JBoss server (Windows) running 12.6.4

     

    1. Delete JBoss\server\default\deploy\hsqldb-ds.xml
    2. Copy JBoss\docs\examples\jca\mssql-ds.xml -> JBoss\server\default\deploy
      Change parameters to reflect your setup
    3. Delete JBoss\server\default\deploy\messaging\hsqldb-persistence-service.xml
    4. Copy JBoss\docs\examples\jms\mssql-persistence-service.xml -> JBoss\server\default\deploy\messaging
      Change DataSource parameters to reflect your setup (use DS from mssql-ds.xml)
    5. Restart JBoss

     

    As I am only using one db connection fraom JBoss, I just use java:/DefaultDS as DS
