Creating Queues
Each queue consists of a physical object on the Universal Messaging realm as well as its logical reference in a namespace that may comprise resources that exist across multiple Universal Messaging realm servers. You can also obtain references to the queue by using the Universal Messaging Client and Admin APIs. You can create a queue in the following ways:
Create the new queue directly under the realm node.
Create a container node (folder) that contains the new queue.
Add the new queue to an already existing container node.
When you connect to a Universal Messaging realm in the Enterprise Manager, all resources and services found in the realm namespace are displayed in a tree structure under the realm node.
To create a queue in the Enterprise Manager
1. Expand the Realms node.
2. Select a realm, right-click it, and then select Create Queue.
3. In the Add queue dialog box, specify a name for the queue.
If you want to create a new container node, you must specify the absolute name of the queue. For example, to create a queue named "requests" in a new container named "eur", type eur/requests.
The set of valid characters that you can use for queue names is the same as the valid character set for channel names. For more information, see
Valid Channel Names.
4. Specify the other queue attributes to configure the behavior of the queue.
5. (Optional) To configure the operational environment of the queue, edit the storage properties associated with the queue.
6. (Optional) If you want to publish Protobuf events on the queue, upload a Protobuf descriptor.
7. Click OK.
