| # Management Example |
| |
| If you have not already done so, [prepare the broker distribution](../../../../README.md#getting-started) before running the example. |
| |
| To run the example, simply type **mvn verify** from this directory. |
| |
| This example shows how to manage ActiveMQ Artemis using JMS Messages to invoke management operations on the server. |
| |
| To manage ActiveMQ Artemis using JMX, see the "jmx" example. |
| |
| ## Example configuration |
| |
| ActiveMQ Artemis can be managed by sending JMS messages with specific properties to its _management_ queue. |
| |
| By default, the management name is called `activemq.management` but this can be configured in broker.xml like so: |
| |
| <management-address>activemq.management</management-address> |
| |
| The management queue requires a "special" user permission `manage` to be able to receive management messages. This is also configured in broker.xml: |
| |
| <security-setting match="activemq.management"> |
| <permission type="manage" roles="guest" /> |
| </security-setting> |
