Instructions on how to use MQ JMSJCA to connect to IBM WebSphere Message Queue

6.0 in 5.1.3 Java CAPS

In the Environment->WebSphereMQ->Configuration

1) Use the "IBM MQ Message Server URL" field to specify a host name and a port
number. For example:
wmq://localhost:1414

Content of the "QueueManager" field will be appended to the "IBM MQ Message Server
URL field" to form a complete URL
wmq://[hostname]:[port]?QueueManager=[queue manager
name]&option1=value1&option2=value2

2) Use the "QueueManager" field to specify the name of a queue manager. For example:
QM_myQMgr

3) If you want to add options to the URL, you have to add them to the "QueueManager"
field. For example to turn off XA and to switch to the "binding" mode, type the following in
the "QueueManager" field:

QM_myQMgr&JMSJCA.NoXA=true&TransportType=JMSC.MQJMS_TP_BIND
INGS_MQ

In the above you need to replace QM_myQMgr with the name of a real queue manager.
And for the rest, you need to type exactly as shown. Options are separated by the "&"
character which is "&" in HTML. The following options are supported:

TransportType
Channel
JMSJCA.NoXA

The default transport type is "client" TCP, if you do not have

TransportType=JMSC.MQJMS_TP_BINDINGS_MQ
option in the "QueueManager" field.

The default transaction mode is XA if you do not have the

JMSJCA.NoXA=true
option in the "QueueManager" field.

3) The "TransportType" field in the GUI is ignored due to a defact. It does not matter
what
you enter here. You have to use the "QueueManager" field to switch to the "binding"
mode.
4) Before deploying your project, copy the following jar files to \logicalhost\is\lib or add
the path to the jar files to the classpath of the Integration Server:

* com.ibm.mqjms.jar
* com.ibm.mq.jar
* com.ibm.mqetclient.jar
* dhbcore.jar

com.ibm.mqetclient.jar is not needed for "binding" mode.

5) MQ JMS supports JMS API. You can use it just like a normal JMS server. However
you have to use tools provided by IBM (e.g., MQ Explorer) to monitor the MQ. Enterprise
Manager management functionality is not supported for WebSphere MQ. Only JMQ,
Grid and STCMS are supported.
