Hi All,
Now we have installed MQ Server in the unix machine and the MQ Client on the iSeries(AS400).
I am from AS400 background and i need to develop some utility programs in RPG to send/receive messages using MQ API.
When i look the license in the iSeries its only contains the " Webshere MQ Java on iSeries". Can i develop the programs in RPG?
Thanks and Regards,
Sudhakar |

AFAIK Iseries only supports the java client. If you want anything else (like the RPG iface) you need to have a qmgr on the box.

Hi,
Thanks.
Can you please clarify in some more detail. You mean if i want to develop a MQ program in RPG i need to have QManager in the iSeries Right.
If my iSeries acting as Client is it possible to create a QManager in the iSeries?
Do we have any doc for the iSeries which is acting as Client.
Thanks and Regards,
Sudhakar |

Hi All,
Does anybody used MQ Client on AS/400 and MQ Server on UNIX?
If yes then in what language you have developed programs in AS400? |

It is really really quite clear.
If you wish to establish a client connection FROM an iSeries machine TO a queue manager anywhere else, you can only use the Java programming language and the Java client to do so.
If you wish to use RPG, you must configure a qmgr on the iSeries machine, and then configure that queue manager to make qmgr<->qmgr connections to the queue manager you want to talk to.
You have no other choices and nobody else does either. |

Thanks Jedi.
So if my iSeries acting as MQ Client, is it possible to create a QMGR in the iSeries. |

A queue manager (server) and client can 'share' the same hardware. You will of course need to purchase a license for server and install the binaries, if you don't have it already. _________________ It's puzzling, I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this before...and it's hard to soar like an eagle when you're surrounded by turkeys. |

z/OS and iSeries are server-only - there are no MQ Client for these platforms. _________________ I like deadlines. I like to wave as they pass by.

Is this still true with WMQ 7.1?
Only Java for client on i-series support?
The infocentre is not entirely clear about this. |

I vaguely recall hearing that this (standard) client will still require a full MQlicense?
Can some IBM'er confirm? |
