Deleting a non-topic space bus destination

Use this task to delete, from a service integration bus, a bus destination that is not for a topic space.

Before you begin

You cannot delete bus destinations that are required by the system; for example, the default exception destination for a messaging engine: _SYSTEM.Exception.Destination.me_name.

Before you can completely delete a bus destination, you must ensure that the destination message point is empty of all messages. A delete action is rejected if there are any messages on the message point, either committed, uncommitted, indoubt or locked.

Any reliable or durable messages sent after the delete action, but before the close of producers, are sent to one of the following destinations:
  • Another message point of the destination, if possible.
  • The exception destination for the deleted destination.
Note: Any attached producers or consumers are closed asynchronously, and do not prevent the delete action. Any messages sent after the delete action, but before close of producers might not be discarded. Depending on the options set, the messages may be moved to the exception destination. For more information see Specifying an exception bus destination and Exception destination.
About this task

To delete a destination, use the administrative console to complete the following steps.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane, click Service integration > Buses.
  2. In the content pane, click the bus on which the destination is defined.
  3. In the content pane, under Destination resources, click Destinations
  4. Click the check box next to the destination name.
  5. Check for and resolve any locked messages. Messages that are locked, as part of in-flight transactions or as in-doubt messages, are not deleted.
  6. To clear all messages from the destination, click Clear. This action deletes all of the messages that it can access. Messages that are locked, part of in-flight transactions or in-doubt are not deleted. If there are messages that cannot be deleted, they are skipped and the operation indicates that it was partially successful.
  7. To delete the empty destination, click Delete.
  8. To confirm that you want to delete the destination click OK.
Results
The bus destination is deleted.
What to do next
Monitor the exception queue for the messaging engine to which the destination was assigned, to see if there are any in-transit messages that were not handled by clearing the destination before it was deleted.
