+ <para>One or more Virtual Hosts can be configured on the Broker. The
+ <link linkend="Java-Broker-Configuring-And-Managing-REST-API">REST Management interfaces</link>
+ and <link linkend="Java-Broker-Configuring-And-Managing-Web-Console">Web Management Console</link>
+ can be used to add and delete Virtual Hosts.</para>
+
+ <para>A new Virtual Host can be created in two ways by specifying either:
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem><para>A <link linkend="Java-Broker-Stores">store type</link> and a store path</para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>A path to Virtual Host XML configuration file</para></listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ In first case the virtual host attributes are derived from Broker global attributes.
+ In the second case, the Virtual Host specific configuration can be set in the configuration XML,
+ for example, alert thresholds, message store, queues, exchanges, ACL etc. The first way of Virtual Host creation
+ is more preferable as it will reduce the burden of configuration changes when migrating to a newer version,
+ especially, when the support of Virtual Host configuration XML will be removed. However, the second way
+ is the only way at the moment to configure <link linkend="Java-Broker-Stores-HA-BDB-Store">HA Message Store</link>,
+ Virtual Host <link linkend="Java-Broker-Security-ACLs">ACL</link> and virtual host specific attributes.
