I am trying to set up a working system as below:
Toolkit(Windows)<=>CM(Windows)<=>Broker(AIX) <=> DB2 (AIX)
I did the following without error:
1. Setting up a QM (called ABC) on CM (Windows) and a QM (Called XYZ) on Broker (AIX).
2. Setting up a CM on Windows
3. Setting up a remote DB2 broker database on another AIX box
4. Setting up a broker on AIX
5. Connecting Toolkit to CM
My questions are:
1. the borker QMgr (XYZ) must have the same name as the CM QMgr (ABC)?
2. If not, how CM know my broker and its belonging Qmgr name? I am trying to use Toolkit to add the broker to the domain, there is nowhere to specify broker Qmgr, but CM QMgr only.
3. Can I use mqsicreateexecutiongroup command to connect CM and broker? However, WMB v6 has no such mqsicreateexecutiongroup command on AIX installation (a defect)? I have no such trouble on Windows during development period.
Any response will be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi
have you created sender and receiver channels between the Broker QM and the ConfigMgr QM.
The Queuemanagers do not have to have the same name.

Yes. I did. A pair of channels on each side with listener up and running using runmqsc command "display chstatus(*)" to check as well.
My question is how to get register brokers in domain.
In Toolkit Broker Admin perspective, I connected toolkit to domain with
*1* CM hostname
*2* CM QMgr Name
*3* CM Qmgr listener port
then, I did register brokers in doamin with
*1* Broker Name
*2* Broker QMgr Name (AIX one)
A Complete exchange involved, there was an error reply on the broker not running. However, QMgr for both side were running good.
There is no where to let CM know where my remote broker is with toolkit? Any idea?
I checked manual and found mqsicreateexecutiongroup command, but it is available on my Windows box, not AIX box.

When you issue "New...Broker" from the admin perspective, you get a dialog box entitled "Create a Broker", where you get to add the "Broker Name" and the "Queue Manager Name". You need to have distributed queueing setup so that the CM qmgr knows how to send messages the to Broker's qmgr, normally this is done by having an XMITQ with the same name as the broker's qmgr and channels, but you can use WMQ clustering.
Until you deploy a flow to an EG, the broker displays as "not running" ... I believe mqsicreateexecutiongroup only installs with the CM (iirc).....

After creating the broker and before trying to add it to the domain did you start it?
| Code: |
| mqsistart <brokername> |
The broker may still process correctly the command from the configmgr after you start it.
Enjoy

Hi Wayne and others,
It works after changing XMITQ with the same name as the broker's qmgr and channels. I did this mistake on v2.1 and now again. Thanks for your help.
