HELP!!! I have a dedicated channel to an AIX queue manager, which uses SSL. I need to convert this channel to a share channel in a queue sharing group. Can a shared channel use SS since the label of the certificate specifies the MQ queue manager name that the channel is defined on?

what are shared channels?

shared Queues are shared in QSG on a Coupling Facility,
Queuemanagers can share queues,
but channels are from QM to QM...

Shared channel summary
Shared channels differ from private channels in the following ways:

Private channel
Tied to a single channel initiator.
Outbound channel uses a local transmission queue.
Inbound channel started through a local port.
Synchronization information held in SYSTEM.CHANNEL.SYNCQ queue.
Shared Channel
Workload balanced with high availability.
Outbound channel uses a shared transmission queue.
Inbound channel started through a generic port.
Synchronization information held in SYSTEM.QSG.CHANNEL.SYNCQ queue.
You specify whether a channel is private or shared when you start the channel. A shared channel can be started by triggering in the same way as a private channel. However, when a shared channel is started, WebSphere MQ performs workload balancing and starts the channel on the most appropriate channel initiator within the queue-sharing group. (If required, you can specify that a shared channel is to be started on a particular channel initiator.)

Shared channel status
The channel initiators in a queue-sharing group maintain a shared channel-status table in DB2. This records which channels are active on which channel initiators. The shared channel-status table is used if there is a channel initiator or communications system failure. It indicates which channels need to be restarted on a different channel initiator in the queue-sharing group.

ok, hadn't read that. still in the QSG you don't have 2 Queuemanagers with the same name... so each QM on the MF side has it's own certificate talking via the 'shared' channel to the one AIX QM...
