I am new to MQ. I need help in connecting to queue manager on the mainframe. I am writing a standalone java client which runs on linux machine and retrieves messages from the queue manager running on a mainframe.
Please let me know if I have to do anything dfiferent to connect to the queue manager on a different machine.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks

You need to review & follow the instructions in the Clients manual (and the relevant parts of the Java manual) to establish a client connection.
You'll also need to know the client configuration established on the mainframe (or have one established for you).
This all assumes that the CAF is opperational on the mainframe & it can accept client connections.

Thanks for your reply. Is there a link to the manual? All the queues are setup on the mainframe. What is CAF?
Thanks |

It's in the Infocenter along with all the other manuals. There's a link at the top of this page.

Useful but not relevant to your question.

Client Attachment Facility - an optional piece of software that allows a mainframe queue manager to receive client connections. Ask your sys prog about it.

Thanks for the reply. I am trying to install MQ Client V7.0 in linux. I downloaded the linux tar file and installed it. All the jar files like mq.jar, mqjms.jar which are required for a stand alone java application to put and read messages are not there.
Do I need to download extended transactional client to install these jar files.
Is there a link where I can download these jar files?
Thanks

Only if you want to use the extended transactional client's extended facilities.

Well if you've downloaded the client already you've presumably already found the link. If you want the ETC jar files and they're not in the download you have (which I thought they were) then you get the link by paying IBM the license fee for ETC.
But I thought the Java ETC was in the standard client these days. However, Java's not my thing & I could be mistaken.

| If you don't find the com.ibm.mq.jar file in your /opt/mqm after install, then you didn't install the mq java rpm. |
