2.5. Server Configuration Migration
HornetQ configuration differs significantly from JBoss Messaging, so it is not possible to provide a one-to-one mapping between the two. Table 2.2, “Server attribute mapping between JBoss Messaging and HornetQ” lists JBoss Messaging server attributes and their equivalents (where possible) in HornetQ.
Unless explicitly indicated, attributes in the HornetQ Server Attributes column are configured in
<JBOSS_HOME>/jboss-as/server/<PROFILE>/deploy/hornetq/hornetq-configuration.xml. The full set of supported directives in this file are documented in Appendix A, Configuration Reference
