Hello,
We use the Supportpac MA7K to trigger MQ apps on Windows platform, using Client-Channel tables. Often times the requirement is to have multiple Trigger Monitor services running on the same box. It would be convenient to customize each Trigger Monitor's environment in terms of the Client-channel it uses. Is it possible to setup the Trigger Service so that, instead of TrigSrv.exe, we invoke something like TrigSrv.bat in which we can set the appropriate MQSERVER variable?
The readme for this SupportPac mentions that MQSERVER, should it be used should be set in the System Env variables - I couldn't find any difference in setting this in a separate window (perhaps this requirement is due to setting this as Windows Service?). If Customizing the Trigger Service environment using a batch file is not possible, how can it be achieved?
Background:
There are multiple distributed Apps which communicate with a given QM using Client Connection channels. All of them specify the QM Name on the MQCONN call. We would like each App to use it own Client-connection Channel as opposed to all of them using the same Client-connection channel as it is setup right now. Though distinguishing the Client-channels using QM Name is a possibility, it entails wide-spread changes - am trying to findout if there is a simple way out - like the above batch file.
Thanks

I guess at a simple level, you could run each instance of the service as a different User, and set the MQCLNTCHL env vars for each user differently.

You can create multiple threads in a single ma7k service, each using its own "different" channel. The "setup.ini" file is pretty clear (imho) on how to create multiple threads and then supply the "channel" parameters....
-or-... the read.me tells you how to create multiple services (with different names, and presumably different userids) and then set environment variables for each userid.

thanks for your responses Jeff & Wayne.
Wayne - I missed the CONNAME and CHANNEL parameters in the setup.ini ...I will play around with them. This is a very useful supportpac - thanks for putting it together!

Updating existing Registry information.
Updating Service
In DeleteService
Error number 1072
Does anyone know what this error is? The service shows up in the Services windows as being "disabled".
Thanks

1072 error results when we delete a service and it is still running or installing a service marked for deletion. In my case, the service was marked for deletion but I was trying to reinstall the service with the same name (box was not rebooted between these two operations) which resulted in above error.
I installed the service with a new name and it installed alright.
