Hi All,
In my company, we are building MQ series based applications that will be running in many solaris servers. MQSeries servers are instaled on only selected machines. I would like to install MQSeries solaris client to a common network area and use it at runtime. Is this possible? Does anyone have experience with network based MQ client installation?

I tried copying the installed headers and libraries to the network. But the applications fail because /var/mqm is not present. There are also unknown queue manager name (2059) errors. I have tried setting the MQSERVER environment variable which seems to work on Windows MQClient installations but does not appear to have any impact in solaris.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
--Kannan.

An working WSMQ unix environment consists of the distribution in /opt/mqm and configuration-, log-files, etc. in /var/mqm. /opt/mqm can be shared but /var/mqm must (maybe should) be local.

If you want to look more closely into the directory structure I would recommend the SupportPac "Configuring WebSphere MQ Integrator for Sun Solaris with VERITAS Cluster Server" ic63.

If /var/mqm is available and MQSERVER is set your application should work.

Example:

# MQSERVER="<channelname>/TCP/<hostname>(<portnumber>)"
MQSERVER="SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN/TCP/mqhost(1414)"
export MQSERVER

It is important use use quotes in a unix environment which are not needed in a windows environment.

The MQSERVER env. works on unix for clients. How are you install the client code, did you get it from the client CD or the SERVER CD.

For Client only you need to use CLIENT CD.
