Hi: Can anyone help me on the two questions?

1.When defining a new clinet connection channel, even it points to the local qmgr, do I have to provide the queue manager name for QMNAME( )? I could not find the answer from RedBook directly.

2. If I change QMNAME on the CLNTCONN definition, do I have to re-copy the TAB file from the server to client?

Thanks!

Patrick

No, QMNAME is not a required field for a client connection. You only need hostname, port# and channel.

BUT.

The client will match what is given as the qmgr name in the MQCONN against a) the client channel table to find out which channel (including connname) to use, and b) the qmgr that is actually connected to.

You'll find the rules on name matching in the Clients manual. The queue manager name requested in the client (if provided) must have a match in the client table. Clearly if it's not provided, or provided as a wildcard this is easier....

If the client application is referencing a local copy of the file obviously yes, if it isn't then no. Much like any file really.
