Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

To add sites to a Message Queuing server's list of sites

  1. Open Active Directory Users and Computers.

  2. On the View menu, click Users, Groups, and Computers as containers, and then click Advanced Features.

  3. In the console tree, right-click msmq.

    Where?

    • Active Directory Users and Computers/YourDomain/YourOrganizationalUnit (such as Computers or Domain Controllers)/YourComputer/msmq
  4. Click Properties.

  5. Click the Sites tab, and in All Sites, select a site to add to the list of sites where the server resides, and then click Add.

Notes

  • To open Active Directory Users and Computers, click Start, point to All Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Users and Computers.

  • 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.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
