Additional considerations

  • In most cases, Message Queuing automatically determines the sites in which servers reside. This procedure is needed to add sites manually to the list of sites where a server resides. The applicable servers are Message Queuing servers with routing enabled, which are also called routing servers. Any routing server that resides in a specific site can be configured as an in-routing or out-routing server for computers that reside in that site. Such routing servers can be configured as site gates in routing links to that site. A routing server can reside in multiple sites, and it can be configured as an in-routing server, an out-routing server, or a site gate, independently in each site in which it resides.
