JMS communication between WAS 6 and JBOSS EAP 6.1

I have an application deployed in Websphere which should push a message in a queue implemented in JBoss using HornetQ. That message will then be consumed by an MDB within another application (on JBoss). Is that even possible?
In summary:
WAS (producer) -> JBoss (consumer)
I think yes because the protocol JMS is shared, but what are the details? should I load JBoss with MQ libraries or is it all in the way I refer to the JBoss queue from WAS?
Thank you so much.

If the MDB deployed on JBoss EAP is receiving a message from a local queue in HornetQ, then you do not need to deploy any MQ jars.
All you will need to do is write a MDB application and read the messages in your onMessage(Message msg) method. It should be really as simple as that.
You can see an example of a MDB in the jboss eap quick start . The HelloWorldQueueMDB.java class is the one you might be interested in. Follow the code in that class and modify the destination annotation value for your particular HornetQ queue name (from standalone-full.xml or standalone-full-ha.xml or the full or full-ha profile in your domain.xml file).
On a side note, JBoss EAP 6.1 is quite old. I would highly recommend upgrading to JBoss EAP 6.4.13 or later.

How to add external messaging broker to Wildfly?

i'm using Wildfly to deploy an EJB war that use an external messaging broker Apollo not the the one that come with wildfly ActiveMQ artemis.
What i must to do setup a JNDI configuration in standalone-full.xml file but there isn't any helpful tutorial to do this i don't know what exactly i need to change in the configuration to make this happen?

Is this post any help?

I was able to use an external artermis broker (not the Wildfly container) following the above example.

Configuration WildFly/HornetQ for JMS/MQ browsing

I'm currently switching from Glassfish to WildFly-8.0.0.Final application server, and my MQ / JMS browser does not support the built-in HornetQ (2.4.0.Final) implementation.
After changing to JMSBrowser 2.6 (which should support HornetQ), I was unable to connect to my running WildFly instance. I presume, I need a little more configuration within the application server to make it work
Can someone supply a working wildfly standalone.xml or standalone-full.xml configuration, that has an enabled remote jmx which can be accessed by QBrowsers?

Integrating existing tomcat server with Active MQ?

I am using tomcat as webserver. Planning to use active mq for messaging purpose. Just started learning about jms and activeMQ.
Gone thru https://activemq.apache.org/getting-started.html. What i have got is active mq comes with its own web
server(probably apache IS not sure). My question is what if I want to use existing tomcat server instead of installing
new server for active mq. Is it possible?
UPDATE: i think i can itegrate existing tomcat with https://activemq.apache.org/tomcat.html

Yes Apache ActiveMQ is a light-weight broker, so you can deploy it in Apache Tomcat as a WAR file. Or try Apache TomEE which comes out of the box with AcitveMQ.
http://tomee.apache.org/apache-tomee.html
If you deploy ActiveMQ as a WAR file then it does not come with its own web service, its only the standalone distribution of ActiveMQ that comes with Jetty as its web server. You just don't need to include Jetty in your WAR file with ActiveMQ embedded.
At Apache Camel we have an example of a WAR file with ActiveMQ and Camel as a WAR file you can deploy in Tomcat. You can take a look, and just remove Camel from the example:
http://camel.apache.org/activemq-camel-tomcat.html

See these:
http://blog.octera.info/2011/06/how-to-embed-activemq-in-tomcat/
http://activemq.apache.org/how-do-i-embed-a-broker-inside-a-connection.html
Basically, you just start a broker in your web application. If you need to retrieve some resource like ConnectionFactory or Destination(Queue/Topic), you can use Tomcat JNDI support to do this.

JBoss 7 application, start/stop from ui?

I am running an application on a Jboss 6 server and using mbeans to start/stop my app without redeploying/restarting server. I was testing on JBoss 7 and saw that there were no mbean support.
How do I create that functionality now? I've yet to find anything on this.

There is MBean support.
In what area do you experience problems: when deploying MBeans or accessing them, ...?

In the meantime (2015), there is a portation of the AS5 jmx-console, which can be deployed to AS7 and WildFly.
