WebSphere MQ for z/OS using CICS configuration

WebSphere MQ channels will not initialize successfully if the channel negotiation detects that the message sequence number is different at each end. You may need to reset this manually.

Note that the z/OS product with CICS uses the message sequence number of the message it last sent, while all other platforms use the sequence number of the next message to be sent. This means you must reset the message sequence number to 0 at the z/OS (with CICS) end of a channel and to 1 everywhere else.

Channel configuration

The following sections detail the configuration to be performed on the z/OS queue manager to implement the channel described in Figure 32.

Examples are given for connecting WebSphere MQ for z/OS and MQSeries for OS/2 Warp. If you wish to connect to another WebSphere MQ product use the appropriate set of values from the table in place of those for OS/2.

Note:
The words in bold are user-specified and reflect the names of WebSphere MQ objects used throughout these examples. If you change the names used here, ensure that you also change the other references made to these objects throughout this book. All others are keywords and should be entered as shown.
