Management Example

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>
