13.4. Configure a Message Store

Procedure 13.1. Task

1. Open the global configuration file in a text editor: vi SOA_ROOT/jboss-as/server/PROFILE/deployers/esb.deployers/jbossesb-properties.xml.
2. Scroll down to the section and edit it to suit your configuration:

   <properties name="dbstore">
     <!--  connection manager type -->
     <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.conn.manager" value=
   "org.jboss.internal.soa.esb.persistence.manager.StandaloneConnectionManager"/>
       <!-- this property is only used for the j2ee connection manager -->
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.datasource.name" 	
         value="java:/JBossesbDS"/>
       <!-- standalone connection pooling settings -->
       <!--  mysql
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.connection.url" 	
         value="jdbc:mysql://localhost/jbossesb"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.jdbc.driver" 		
         value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.user" 				
         value="kstam"/> -->
       <!--  postgres 
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.connection.url" 	
         value="jdbc:postgresql://localhost/jbossesb"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.jdbc.driver" 		
         value="org.postgresql.Driver"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.user" 				
         value="postgres"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.pwd" 				
         value="postgres"/> -->
       <!-- hsqldb -->
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.connection.url" 	
         value="jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost:9001/jbossesb"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.jdbc.driver" 		
         value="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.user" value="sa"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.pwd" value=""/>	
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.pool.initial.size"	
         value="2"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.pool.min.size"		
         value="2"/>
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.pool.max.size"		
         value="5"/>
       <!--table managed by pool to test for valid connections
           created by pool automatically -->
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.pool.test.table"	
         value="pooltest"/>		
       <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.pool.timeout.millis"
         value="5000"/> 
   </properties>
   

   Note

   You will find the scripts for the "required database" schema in the SOA_ROOT/jboss-as/server/PROFILE/deploy/jbossesb.esb/message-store-sql/DB_TYPE/create_database.sql file.
3. Sill in the global configuration file, configure the database connection manager:

   <!--  connection manager type -->
   <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.conn.manager" 
     value="org.jboss.internal.soa.esb.persistence.format.db.Standalone
   ConnectionManager"/>
   <!--  property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.conn.manager" 
   value="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.manager.J2eeConnectionManager"/ -->
   <!-- this property is only used for the j2ee connection manager -->
   <property name="org.jboss.soa.esb.persistence.db.datasource.name" 
     value="java:/JBossesbDS"/>
   

   Note

   The Stand-Alone Manager uses C3PO to manage the connection pooling logic whilst the J2eeConnectionManager, by contrast, employs a data-source. Use the latter when deploying Enterprise Service Bus end-points inside a container such as a JBoss Application Server.
4. Save the file and exit.
5. Alternatively, you could plug in a custom connection manager by implementing the org.jboss.internal.soa.esb.persistence.manager.ConnectionManager interface and then updating the Properties file by providing it with the name of the new class.
