Hi experts,

I hope I'm not annoying you these days with my questions but I promise you this will be my last topic for the next time

So thanks to your help I was able to set up my environment correctly so that my Configuration Manager can communicate with my remote Broker. I was also able to deploy a sample message flow on the remote Broker using the Toolkit.

I'm btw talking about the famous "Java_Simple.msgflow".

So of course I wanted to test if this message flow is running correctly and I used the "Test Message Flow" feature of the Toolkit. (Since I have no experience writing clients) So here comes the problem:

Somehow the Toolkit always tries to access the "JAVA_SIMPLE_IN" queue on the Configuration Manager... However this queue resides on the remote broker and I don't understand why the Toolkit won't just put the message on the right queue on the right Queue Manager...Since I'm selecting the right execution group on the right broker...

Do you have any advice on this? This is really the last issue I face in building my test environment!

Thank you all

AFAIK (and I'm sure that I'll get corrected) the sample flows assume OOTB the following:-
1) you are running with the DEFAULT Configuration

OR

2) You are running with everything locally. ie A configuration that is not the default one but is on the same physical system as the Toolkit.

If The toolkit assumes that the queue to put the data on is local and there is no way to point the sample put to the remote QM, and I was in control of the environment then I'd create a local QM with the Queue defined as a Remote Q so that the messages could be sent to the actual Broker QM.
Or you can put the message using another tool suct as Rfhutilc.
There are also other ways this can be done.

Ok thank you for that clear answer, I already suspected a similar restriction...

Then I'll try to create a queue that forwards the messages to the actual Broker and -I will also look into Rfhutilc.

Thanks again.

Ah btw. those tests worked in an environment where the Config MGR & the Broker ran under the same Queue Manager. So Toolkit works with a remote environment but it seems like it doesn't work with a remote Queue Manager in a remote environment

The message test client in v6.1 is terribly configurable, and so you may just need to tweak some values on the configuration tab.
