Stopping a Message Broker

Under most conditions, a Message Broker runs continuously. However, it may be necessary to stop a Message Broker. For example, you may choose to move a Message Broker to a different computer or remove a Message Broker from a Message Broker cloud. If the Message Broker that you stop is serving clients, those clients continue to access the server configurations, but without using ActiveMQ MPX.
  1. You should first notify users that ActiveMQ MPX will be unavailable.
  2. On the computer where the Message Broker is installed, click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. On Microsoft Windows XP systems, click Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Administrative Tools > Services.
  3. Select the service named Micro Focus ActiveMQ Message Broker.
  4. Click Stop.
