Tocreate a physical destination from the Admin Console, select Conguration >Physical
Destinations.In the Create Physical Destinations page, specify a name for the physical
destinationand choose the type of destination, which can be topic or queue. For more details
aboutthe elds and properties in the Physical Destinations page, refer the Admin Console
OnlineHelp.
Forproduction purposes, always create physical destinations. During the development and
testingphase, however, this step is not required. The rst time an application accesses a
destinationresource, Message Queue automatically creates the physical destination specied by
theName property of the destination resource. The physical destination is temporary and
expiresafter a period specied by a Message Queue conguration property.
Tomanage JMS physical destinations using the command-line utility, use create-jmsdest,
flush-jmsdest,ordelete-jmsdestcommand.

remotehost.
■SpecifyStart Arguments to customize the JMS service startup.

representan unacceptable delay.

connect(or reconnect) for each address in the AddressList before the client runtime tries
thenext address in the list.
