Persistent
When a producer sends a PERSISTENT message, the producer must wait for the server to reply with a confirmation. The message is persisted on disk by the server. This delivery mode ensures delivery of messages to the destination on the server in almost all circumstances. However, the cost is that this delivery mode incurs two-way network traffic for each message or committed transaction of a group of messages.
Persistent
Message
EMS Server
Non Persistent
Sending a NON_PERSISTENT message omits the overhead of persisting the message on disk to improve performance. If authorization is disabled on the server, the server does not send a confirmation to the message producer. If authorization is enabled on the server, the default condition is for the producer to wait for the server to reply with a confirmation in the same manner as when using PERSISTENT mode.
Non Persistent
Regardless of whether authorization is enabled or disabled, you can use the npsend_check_mode parameter in the tibemsd.conf file to specify the conditions under which the server is to send confirmation of NON_PERSISTENT messages to the producer.

Reliable Delivery
EMS extends the JMS delivery modes to include reliable delivery. Sending a RELIABLE_DELIVERY message omits the server confirmation to improve performance regardless of the authorization setting.
Message Producer
Message
EMS Server
Reliable Delivery
When using RELIABLE_DELIVERY mode, the server never sends the producer a receipt confirmation or access denial and the producer does not wait for it. Reliable mode decreases the volume of message traffic, allowing higher message rates, which is useful for messages containing time-dependent data, such as stock price quotations. When you use the reliable delivery mode, the client application does not receive any response from the server. Therefore, all publish calls will always succeed (not throw an exception) unless the connection to the server has been terminated.
Reliable Delivery
In some cases a message published in reliable mode may be disqualified and not handled by the server because the destination is not valid or access has been denied. In this case, the message is not sent to any message consumer. However, unless the connection to the server has been terminated, the publishing application will not receive any exceptions, despite the fact that no consumer received the message.
PERSISTENT messages are written to persistent storage when they are received by the EMS server.
Send Message
Receive Message
Acknowledge
Non-durable subscribers that re-connect after a server failure are considered newly created subscribers and are not entitled to receive any messages created prior to the time they are created.
Publish Message
Subscribe to Topic
Subscribe to Topic
When using file storage, persistent messages received by the EMS server are by default written asynchronously to disk. When a producer sends a persistent message, the server does not wait for the write-to-disk operation to complete before returning control to the producer. This means that the producer has no way of detecting the failure of persisting the message and take corrective action if the server fails before completing the write-to-disk operation.
You can set the mode parameter to sync for a given file storage in the stores.conf file to specify that persistent messages for the topic or queue be synchronously written to disk. When mode = sync, the persistent producer remains blocked until the server has completed the write-to-disk operation.

File based stores are enabled by default. Server automatically defines 3 default stores
$sys.nonfailsafe
Server writes messages using asynchronous I/O calls.
$sys.failsafe
Server writes messages using synchronous I/O calls.
$sys.meta
Server writes state information about durable subscribers & fault tolerant connections.
Message COMPRESSION
Message Compression
TIBCO Enterprise Message Service allows a client to compress the body of a message before sending the message to the server. EMS supports message compression/decompression across client types (Java, C and C#). For example, a Java producer may compress a message and a C consumer may decompress the message.
Message compression is supported in .NET clients when using the install package for Visual C++ 8 / .NET 2.0 or above.
Message Compression
Less memory storage for PERSISTENT queue messages or DURABLE topic subscribers. Compression option only compresses the BODY content. Headers and properties are NEVER compressed. When messages are not stored, compression is not a good option. Why?
Message Compression
Compression specific for individual messages. Not on a per-queue or per-topic basis. To set message compression
JMS_TIBCO_COMPRESS to TRUE
Message ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Message Acknowledgement
Message Confirmation Message
Acknowledgement
Confirmation of Acknowledgement
JMS : CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE
Consumer is to acknowledge all messages that have been delivered so far by the session.
Possible for the consumer to fall behind in its message processing and build up a large number of unacknowledged messages
Message 1 3 2 Message 1 2 3
Acknowledgement # 1,2,3
JMS : AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE
Session is to automatically acknowledge consumer receipt of messages when message processing has finished
Message 1 3 2
Message 1 2 3
Acknowledgement 1 3 2
JMS : DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE
Session is to "lazily" acknowledge the delivery of messages to the consumer. "Lazy" means that the consumer can delay acknowledgement of messages to the server until a convenient time; meanwhile the server might redeliver messages.
Message 1 3 2
EMS : NO_ACKNOWLEDGE
NO_ACKNOWLEDGE mode suppresses the acknowledgement of received messages. After the server sends a message to the client, all information regarding that message for that consumer is eliminated from the server. Therefore, there is no need for the client application to send an acknowledgement to the server about the received message.
EMS : EXPLICIT_CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE
EXPLICIT_CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE is like CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE except it acknowledges only the individual message, rather than all messages received so far on the session.
Message 1 3 2
Message 1 2 3 Acknowledgement 1 2 3
EMS : EXPLICIT_CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE
As each thread finishes its insert, it can use this mode to acknowledge only the message that it is currently working on.
EMS : EXPLICIT_CLIENT_DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE
EXPLICIT_CLIENT_DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE is like DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE except it lazily acknowledges only the individual message, rather than all messages received so far on the session.
Message SELECTORS
Message Selectors
A message selector is a string that lets a client program specify a set of messages, based on the values of message headers and properties. A selector matches a message if, after substituting header and property values from the message into the selector string, the string evaluates to true. Consumers can request that the server deliver only those messages that match a selector.

Clients can obtain references to static destinations through a naming service such as JNDI or LDAP But they cannot obtain the references to dynamic or temporary destinations Dynamic topics and queues have an asterisk (*) marked in front of them, when you use the commands show queues or show topics in tibemsadmin
If a property of a queue or topic has an asterisk (*) character in front of its name, it means that the property was inherited from the parent queue or topic

exclusive
exclusive
Available only for queues Set the exclusive property using addprop or setprop When exclusive is set for the queue, the server sends all the messages on that queue to one consumer. No other consumer can receive messages from the queue. Instead, these additional consumers act in a standby role; if the primary consumer fails, the server selects one of the standby consumers as the new primary and begins delivering messages to it.
exclusive
expiration
expiration
If an expiration property is set for a destination, the server honors the overridden expiration period
If expiration property for the server is set, the server overrides the JMSExpiration value set by the producer in the message header
expiration=time[msec|sec|min|hour|day]
expiration
maxbytes
maxbytes
Topics & queues can specify the maxbytes property in the form
maxbytes=value[KB|MB|GB]
FOR QUEUES
maxbytes: maximum size (in bytes) that the queue can store, summed over all the messages in the queue
If this limit is exceeded, the messages will be rejected by the server and the producer send calls will return an error
maxbytes
FOR TOPICS
maxbytes: maximum size(in bytes) that the topic can store for delivery to each durable or non-durable online subscriber on that topic The limit applies separately to each subscriber on the topic Example : offline durable subscriber exceed maxbytes messages accumulate until they
non durable subscriber maxbytes limits the number of pending messages that can accumulate while the subscriber is online
maxbytes
maxmsgs
maxmsgs
Topics & queues can specify the maxmsgs property in the form
maxmsgs=value
maxbytes: maximum number of messages that can be waiting in a queue When adding a message into a queue/topic would exceed this limit, the server would reject the message and the producers send call returns an error Can set both maxmsgs and maxbytes properties on the same queue. Exceeding either limit causes server to reject new messages until consumers reduce the queue size to below these limits.
maxmsgs
maxRedelivery
maxRedelivery
The number of attempts the server should make to deliver a message sent to a destination
maxRedelivery=count
count is between 2 & 255
For messages that have been redelivered, JMSRedelivered header property is set to true JMSXDeliveryCount property is set to the number of times the message has been delivered to the destination
maxRedelivery
overflowPolicy
overflowPolicy
To change the effect of exceeding the message capacity established by maxbytes or maxmsgs
overflowpolicy=default|discardOld|rejectIncoming
default
For TOPICS maxbytes or maxmsgs exceed for a subscriber, that subscriber does not receive message No error returned to producer For QUEUES New messages are rejected by the server if maxbytes or maxmsgs are exceeded Error returned to producer
overflowPolicy
discardOld
For TOPICS Oldest messages are discarded before they are delivered to the subscriber
Impacts subscribers individually. 3 subscribers, 1 exceeds the message limit. So, only the oldest messages for the one subscriber are discarded, while other two continue to receive all messages No error returned to producer, as message can be delivered to some and discarded for others
overflowPolicy
rejectIncoming
For TOPICS
If ANY of the subscribers have an outstanding number of undelivered messages on the server that are over the message limit, all new messages are rejected Error is returned to producer
For QUEUES
overflowPolicy
Quick Quiz
How do I discard messages on myQueue when the number of queued messages exceeds 2500 ?
setprop queue myQueue maxmsgs=2500, overflowpolicy=discardOld
How do I reject all new messages published to myTopic when the memory used by undelivered messages for any of the topic subscribers exceeds 3 MB?
setprop topic myTopic maxbytes=3MB,overflowPolicy=rejectIncoming

prefetch
prefetch
Consumer and the EMS Server cooperate to regulate message fetching through this property prefetch=value
Value 2 or more 1 none Description Never fetches more than specified number (Auto Fetch) Fetch only if it has no message (Auto Fetch) Disable Auto Fetch. Cannot be used with topics or global queues Destination inherits the prefetch value. Default value for queues = 5 & topics = 64
0 (default)
prefetch
5 4 3 2 1
prefetch
prefetch
Improves performance by decreasing or eliminating client idle time while the server transfers a message
When a queue consumer prefetches a group of messages, the server does not deliver them to other queue consumers (unless the first queue consumers connection to the server is broken)
prefetch
Example A receive call initiates a fetch, but its timeout elapses before the server finishes transferring the message This leaves a fetched message waiting in the message consumer A second receive call does not fetch another message; instead it accepts the message already waiting The third receive call initiates another fetch
prefetch
A waiting message still belongs to the queue consumer, and the server does not deliver it to another queue(unless the first queue consumers connection to the server is broken) To prevent messages from waiting in this state for long periods Call receive with no timeout Call receive with timeout repeatedly and shorten the interval
PARENT all parents : none any parent : non-zero numeric value does not set any value
prefetch
secure
secure
If secure is enabled for a destination, it instructs the server to check the user permissions whenever a user attempts to perform an operation on that destination
tibemsd.conf
sender_name
sender_name
Server may include the senders username for messages sent to this destination When connection between producer and server is established, server takes the username supplied by the producer and places it in the JMS_TIBCO_SENDER property of the message
But if producer sets the JMS_TIBCO_DISABLE_SENDER to true for a message, server will not add the sender name to the message
sender_name
sender_name_enforced
sender_name_enforced
Specifies that the messages sent to this destination MUST include the senders username Unlike sender_name property, there is no way for message producers to override this property This property overrides sender_name if already set.
sender_name_enforced
store
store
Specifies where the messages sent to this destination are stored Configure stores in stores.conf
