Is there a way to connect to an SIBus in WAS 6.1 with MQ 6.0 Explorer such that you can view and/or manage the SIBus qmgr? |

AFAIK the SIBUS is not MQ, so why would you be able to connect to it using the MQ Explorer? _________________ Michael

FMU, the SIBus is seen as just another MQ qmgr from the Websphere MQ perspective via the MQ Link and Foreign Bus setup in SIBus. Although the implementation differs, I believe the end goal was to achieve a transparent layer of abstraction between the two messaging engines to allow for communication between the two without either implementation being important. (i.e. Websphere MQ sees SIBus as just another Websphere MQ instance, and vice versa).
I'd imagine if you can connect to it through sender/receiver channels, you can connect to it through a svrconn channel to view the objects through that MQ Link. Of course, I am just speculating, which is why I'm asking
In our company we have two different groups that manage the MQ infrastructure and the WAS infrastructure, so we are looking for a consolidated MQ infrastructure management perspective in respect to tooling and were hoping we could extend off the Websphere MQ Explorer to view the SIBus components (MQ related objects, albeit they are different due to the implementation, but again we are hoping the queue destinations could be viewed as MQ objects) as opposed to using the WAS Admin Console. |

I'm quite sure that SIBus doesn't have any notion of SVRCONN channels.
I'm quite sure that SIBus doesn't have any notion of PCF Messages, or the command server to process those messages. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |

Nope, I don't think that's the case. _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

I think the MQ Explorer is just a frontend provided for the MQ runtime on the system.
Can you use the Admin Console of one AppSrvr to view the applications deployed on another AppSrvr (of same or different vendor types)?
This is what I feel....ofcourse..  |
