Chapter 16. Applying Patches
Abstract
Red Hat JBoss A-MQ supports incremental patching. Red Hat will supply you with easy to install patches that only make targeted changes to a deployed broker.
16.1. Introduction to Patching
Patching enables you apply fixes to a broker without needing to reinstall an updated version of Red Hat JBoss A-MQ. It also allows you to back out the patch, if it causes problems with your deployed applications. Patches are ZIP files that contain the artifacts needed to update a targeted set of bundles in a container. The artifacts are typically one or more bundles. They can, however, include configuration files and feature descriptors.
In addition, since JBoss A-MQ 6.2.1, a full distribution can be used as a rollup patch. This enables you to upgrade all aspects of an existing JBoss A-MQ distribution—including installed features, bundles and configurations—while preserving custom configuration changes.
You get a patch file in one of the following ways:
- Customer Support sends you a patch.
- Customer Support sends you a link to download a patch.
- Download a patch directly from the Red Hat customer portal.
The process of applying a patch to a broker depends on how the broker is deployed:
- Standalone—the broker's command console's patch shell has commands for managing the patching process
- Fabric—patching a fabric requires applying the patch to a profile and then applying the profile to a broker.
