Hi

I am sending my messages from broker to AS/400
Do i need to set the MQMD properties like CCSID, encoding and Format?
if so, Any idea what the values could be for AS/400.

I believe it would depend upon your AS/400 application's requirements. In our environment, the CCSID, Encoding etc are set to the native values on our broker and the Format is set to MQSTR (meaning string) as its an XML message.

The application reading the messages on the AS/400 specifies an MQGMO_CONVERT option and the AS/400 qmgr converts from the UNIX endian/char set/encoding etc into the AS/400's required values for us.

You might have to tweak around to get CR/LF converted to EBCDIC line feeds if you're coming from a WIndows machine.

If your as/400 app does not use MQGMO_CONVERT, you can get the channel to do the work for you using the convert(YES) attribute of the channel.
