a basic question to you all.
I was using fmczutil to create a new config. At the final step instead of using "c" option to create i selected "s" save option. Now How do I use that file to create the config. I used
fmczutil -f config.dat (config.dat is the file which i saved) but it is not working. where am I going wrong?

That is the option and it will work. It will again ask for your input but all the fields will be defaulted to what ever was in the input file. _________________ -Ratan |

thanks ratan. It works. I got confused. When I ran this command it asks you for the configuration ID again. I thought it would take the configuration id (it already exists in the file) too from the file.
Could we make use of this file in some scripts so that we could automate the task of creating the configurations on different machines(ofcourse one need to find a way to change the machine name and port numbers).

Yes. For more detailed info refer
Appendix F. Unattended installation and configuration in the Workflow Installation guide.

hi vennela,
I looked into the installation guide. I used the fmczkcfg utility as suggested there and wrote some scripts to modify the config file that is given as input to this command. It works great
Now it is more perfect. Thanks again you saved my time.

MQRR,
On which platforms have you done the silent configurations??
I need to do a silent configuration on Solaris server (headless environment)
I do not have na other Solaris box to create a manual configuration on.
So i was wondering if you have the configuration data files.
And also can i use the windows config data files for the solaris ???
Any inputs will be great
thanks

Hi devin,
I have done it on windows environment. I am not quite sure about the solaris envi. But my guess is the config files differ from environment to environment.
Any of the unix experts could add more info here.
But what exactly are you trying to do. are your trying to connect the windows boxes which as clients to the unix box which acts as server?
And if you are need of the config files they will be always sitting in your machine in <WFRoot>/cfg/<cfg-id>/fmczkcfg.dat

Hi,
Thanks for the response.
I am going to do a completely new installation and configuration on Solaris box. That box already has MQSeries, DB2 and WebSphere 4.0.
We have to configure the MQWF Server and also web client on it.
We havent installed MQWF on UNIX here before.
So i guess i have to go with the manual configuration.
I need a suggestion here,
how i am planning to go about is
1. Install the whole MQWF package.
2. First Configuration - just the MQWF Server
3. Second configuration - Web client with queue manager
Is it a good way to go?
Thanks

I am assuming when you say
first configuration it is configuration on Server box.
if it is yes and also configure the webclient too.
second configuration= client workstation
then
it depends:
1.you can either go with webclient + QM (you need MQServer)
2. or you can go with just webclient (MQclient+ you make use of channel tab file)
But it is better to get some advice from the experts here.
most of them prefer 2 option.

I am not sure why you are trying for an unattended configuration for just once. If you have to create many configurations then you should go for unattended configurations. But otherwise yu are wasting too much of your time on figuring out correlating things between Windows and Solaris.

That is the best thing to do. |

Hi ,
We are going to have MQWF Server, WAS and MQServer on the same Solaris box. So both the configurations will be on the same box.
In this case, is the webclient with queue manager a better option or not?
Thanks

One more doubt ,
while configuring web client with queue manager , in the scenario I have described above ,
Is there a possibility that I can use the same queue manager that is used by the MQWF Server??

Yes it is. I have done it in WMQWF3.4 (maybe it will work in earlier versions also but I am not sure). If you are working with the latest version then you have that luxury. |
