Chapter 1. Overview

AMQ Broker configuration files define important settings for a broker instance. By editing a broker’s configuration files, you can control how the broker operates in your environment.

1.1. AMQ Broker configuration files and locations

All of a broker’s configuration files are stored in <broker-instance-dir>/etc. You can configure a broker by editing the settings in these configuration files.

Each broker instance uses the following configuration files:

broker.xml
The main configuration file. You use this file to configure most aspects of the broker, such as network connections, security settings, message addresses, and so on.
bootstrap.xml
The file that AMQ Broker uses to start a broker instance. You use it to change the location of broker.xml, configure the web server, and set some security settings.
logging.properties
You use this file to set logging properties for the broker instance.
artemis.profile
You use this file to set environment variables used while the broker instance is running.
login.config, artemis-users.properties, artemis-roles.properties
Security-related files. You use these files to set up authentication for user access to the broker instance.

1.2. Understanding the default broker configuration

You configure most of a broker’s functionality by editing the broker.xml configuration file. This file contains default settings, which are sufficient to start and operate a broker. However, you will likely need to change some of the default settings and add new settings to configure the broker for your environment.

By default, broker.xml contains default settings for the following functionality:

  • Message persistence
  • Acceptors
  • Security
  • Message addresses

Default message persistence settings

By default, AMQ Broker persistence uses an append-only file journal that consists of a set of files on disk. The journal saves messages, transactions, and other information. 

<configuration ...>

   <core ...>

      ...

      <persistence-enabled>true</persistence-enabled>

      <!-- this could be ASYNCIO, MAPPED, NIO
           ASYNCIO: Linux Libaio
           MAPPED: mmap files
           NIO: Plain Java Files
       -->
      <journal-type>ASYNCIO</journal-type>

      <paging-directory>data/paging</paging-directory>

      <bindings-directory>data/bindings</bindings-directory>

      <journal-directory>data/journal</journal-directory>

      <large-messages-directory>data/large-messages</large-messages-directory>

      <journal-datasync>true</journal-datasync>

      <journal-min-files>2</journal-min-files>

      <journal-pool-files>10</journal-pool-files>

      <journal-file-size>10M</journal-file-size>

      <!--
       This value was determined through a calculation.
       Your system could perform 8.62 writes per millisecond
       on the current journal configuration.
       That translates as a sync write every 115999 nanoseconds.

       Note: If you specify 0 the system will perform writes directly to the disk.
             We recommend this to be 0 if you are using journalType=MAPPED and journal-datasync=false.
      -->
      <journal-buffer-timeout>115999</journal-buffer-timeout>

      <!--
        When using ASYNCIO, this will determine the writing queue depth for libaio.
       -->
      <journal-max-io>4096</journal-max-io>

      <!-- how often we are looking for how many bytes are being used on the disk in ms -->
      <disk-scan-period>5000</disk-scan-period>

      <!-- once the disk hits this limit the system will block, or close the connection in certain protocols
           that won't support flow control. -->
      <max-disk-usage>90</max-disk-usage>

      <!-- should the broker detect dead locks and other issues -->
      <critical-analyzer>true</critical-analyzer>

      <critical-analyzer-timeout>120000</critical-analyzer-timeout>

      <critical-analyzer-check-period>60000</critical-analyzer-check-period>

      <critical-analyzer-policy>HALT</critical-analyzer-policy>

      ...

  </core>

</configuration>

Default acceptor settings

Brokers listen for incoming client connections by using an acceptor configuration element to define the port and protocols a client can use to make connections. By default, AMQ Broker includes configuration for an acceptor for each supported messaging protocol. 

<configuration ...>

   <core ...>

      ...

      <acceptors>

         <!-- Acceptor for every supported protocol -->
         <acceptor name="artemis">tcp://0.0.0.0:61616?tcpSendBufferSize=1048576;tcpReceiveBufferSize=1048576;protocols=CORE,AMQP,STOMP,HORNETQ,MQTT,OPENWIRE;useEpoll=true;amqpCredits=1000;amqpLowCredits=300</acceptor>

         <!-- AMQP Acceptor.  Listens on default AMQP port for AMQP traffic.-->
         <acceptor name="amqp">tcp://0.0.0.0:5672?tcpSendBufferSize=1048576;tcpReceiveBufferSize=1048576;protocols=AMQP;useEpoll=true;amqpCredits=1000;amqpLowCredits=300</acceptor>

         <!-- STOMP Acceptor. -->
         <acceptor name="stomp">tcp://0.0.0.0:61613?tcpSendBufferSize=1048576;tcpReceiveBufferSize=1048576;protocols=STOMP;useEpoll=true</acceptor>

         <!-- HornetQ Compatibility Acceptor.  Enables HornetQ Core and STOMP for legacy HornetQ clients. -->
         <acceptor name="hornetq">tcp://0.0.0.0:5445?anycastPrefix=jms.queue.;multicastPrefix=jms.topic.;protocols=HORNETQ,STOMP;useEpoll=true</acceptor>

         <!-- MQTT Acceptor -->
         <acceptor name="mqtt">tcp://0.0.0.0:1883?tcpSendBufferSize=1048576;tcpReceiveBufferSize=1048576;protocols=MQTT;useEpoll=true</acceptor>

      </acceptors>

      ...

  </core>

</configuration>

Default security settings

AMQ Broker contains a flexible role-based security model for applying security to queues, based on their addresses. The default configuration uses wildcards to apply the amq role to all addresses (represented by the number sign, #). 

<configuration ...>

   <core ...>

      ...

      <security-settings>
         <security-setting match="#">
            <permission type="createNonDurableQueue" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="deleteNonDurableQueue" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="createDurableQueue" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="deleteDurableQueue" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="createAddress" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="deleteAddress" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="consume" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="browse" roles="amq"/>
            <permission type="send" roles="amq"/>
            <!-- we need this otherwise ./artemis data imp wouldn't work -->
            <permission type="manage" roles="amq"/>
         </security-setting>
      </security-settings>

      ...

  </core>

</configuration>

Default message address settings

AMQ Broker includes a default address that establishes a default set of configuration settings to be applied to any created queue or topic.

Additionally, the default configuration defines two queues: DLQ (Dead Letter Queue) handles messages that arrive with no known destination, and Expiry Queue holds messages that have lived past their expiration and therefore should not be routed to their original destination. 

<configuration ...>

   <core ...>

      ...

      <address-settings>
         ...
         <!--default for catch all-->
         <address-setting match="#">
            <dead-letter-address>DLQ</dead-letter-address>
            <expiry-address>ExpiryQueue</expiry-address>
            <redelivery-delay>0</redelivery-delay>
            <!-- with -1 only the global-max-size is in use for limiting -->
            <max-size-bytes>-1</max-size-bytes>
            <message-counter-history-day-limit>10</message-counter-history-day-limit>
            <address-full-policy>PAGE</address-full-policy>
            <auto-create-queues>true</auto-create-queues>
            <auto-create-addresses>true</auto-create-addresses>
            <auto-create-jms-queues>true</auto-create-jms-queues>
            <auto-create-jms-topics>true</auto-create-jms-topics>
         </address-setting>
      </address-settings>

      <addresses>
         <address name="DLQ">
            <anycast>
               <queue name="DLQ" />
            </anycast>
         </address>
         <address name="ExpiryQueue">
            <anycast>
               <queue name="ExpiryQueue" />
            </anycast>
         </address>
      </addresses>

   </core>

</configuration>

1.3. Reloading configuration updates

By default, a broker checks for changes in the configuration files every 5000 milliseconds. If any are found, the configuration is reloaded to activate the changes. You can change the interval at which the broker checks for configuration changes.

If the configuration is changed, the broker reloads the following modules:

  • Address settings and queues

    When the configuration file is reloaded, the address settings determine how to handle addresses and queues that have been deleted from the configuration file. You can set this with the config-delete-addresses and config-delete-queues properties. For more information, see Appendix B, Address Setting Configuration Elements.

  • Security settings

    SSL/TLS keystores and truststores on an existing acceptor can be reloaded to establish new certificates without any impact to existing clients. Connected clients, even those with older or differing certificates, can continue to send and receive messages.

Procedure

  1. Open the <broker-instance-dir>/etc/broker.xml configuration file.

  2. Within the <core> element, add the <configuration-file-refresh-period> element and set the refresh period (in milliseconds).

    This example sets the configuration refresh period to be 60000 milliseconds: 

    <configuration>
    <core>
        ...
        <configuration-file-refresh-period>60000</configuration-file-refresh-period>
        ...
    </core>
</configuration>

1.4. Modularizing the broker configuration file

If you have multiple brokers that share common configuration settings, you can define the common configuration in separate files, and then include these files in each broker’s broker.xml configuration file.

The most common configuration settings that you might share between brokers include:

  • Addresses
  • Address settings
  • Security settings

Procedure

  1. Create a separate XML file for each broker.xml section that you want to share.

    Each XML file can only include a single section from broker.xml (for example, either addresses or address settings, but not both). The top-level element must also define the element namespace (xmlns="urn:activemq:core").

    This example shows a security settings configuration defined in my-security-settings.xml:

    my-security-settings.xml

    <security-settings xmlns="urn:activemq:core">
   <security-setting match="a1">
      <permission type="createNonDurableQueue" roles="a1.1"/>
   </security-setting>
   <security-setting match="a2">
      <permission type="deleteNonDurableQueue" roles="a2.1"/>
   </security-setting>
</security-settings>

  2. Open the <broker-instance-dir>/etc/broker.xml configuration file for each broker that should use the common configuration settings.

  3. For each broker.xml file that you opened, do the following:

    1. In the <configuration> element at the beginning of broker.xml, verify that the following line appears: 

      xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"

    2. Add an XML inclusion for each XML file that contains shared configuration settings.

      This example includes the my-security-settings.xml file.

      broker.xml

      <configuration ...>
    <core ...>
        ...
        <xi:include href="/opt/my-broker-config/my-security-settings.xml"/>
        ...
    </core>
</configuration>

    3. If desired, validate broker.xml to verify that the XML is valid against the schema.

      You can use any XML validator program. This example uses xmllint to validate broker.xml against the artemis-server.xsl schema. 

      $ xmllint --noout --xinclude --schema /opt/redhat/amq-broker/amq-broker-7.2.0/schema/artemis-server.xsd /var/opt/amq-broker/mybroker/etc/broker.xml
/var/opt/amq-broker/mybroker/etc/broker.xml validates

1.5. Document conventions

This document uses the following conventions for the sudo command and file paths.

The sudo command

In this document, sudo is used for any command that requires root privileges. You should always exercise caution when using sudo, as any changes can affect the entire system.

For more information about using sudo, see The sudo Command.

About the use of file paths in this document

In this document, all file paths are valid for Linux, UNIX, and similar operating systems (for example, /home/...). If you are using Microsoft Windows, you should use the equivalent Microsoft Windows paths (for example, C:\Users\...).
