  6. Optional: Setup service script
Configuring instances

For each broker instance:

  1. Switch to activemq account su - activemq
  2. If needed, create an instance wide setup file
  3. Set up key and trust stores in /usr/local/apache-activemq-x.y.z/bin/activemq setup ~activemq/.activemqrc. To use per instance activemqrc files (named ~/.activemqrc-instance-$(INSTANCE_NAME)) the start script used to start the instance must start with *activemq-instance-$(INSTANCE_NAME).
  4. Create broker instance configuration /usr/local/apache-activemq-x.y.z/bin/activemq create $(INSTANCE_NAME)
  5. Configure broker vim $(INSTANCE_NAME)/conf/{activemq,jetty}.xml
  6. Optional: Set up key and trust stores in $(INSTANCE_NAME)/conf/broker.{k,t}s
  7. Optional: Add broker to the service script, so that the broker may be automatically started on reboot.Setup service script
