Hi,
oUR SCENARIO IS:
Windows ( MQ v6 client) <-----------> Solaris ( MQ v6 server)
We have MQ v6 server installed and working fine on a Solaris box. We also installed all the MQ-Java/JMS stuff on it and we tested the postcard application successfully on it as suggested in the 'Using Java' manual.
Now, we want to setup a Windows box ( that has MQ v6 client only) to connect to the MQ server on Solaris via JMS. In future there would be a Siebel version on the Windows box and so we want to test the JMS connectivity.
We installed MQ v6 client on the Windows box and used rfhUtilC from it successfully to put/get msgs to/from a queue on the MQ server on Solaris.
We don't have any LDAP / security so we are using the file system for now.
Can somebody please suggest what all we need to do on the Windows machine in order to connect it to the MQ server on Solaris using JMS. The documentation is a bit unclear to me.
In particular I need to know what all the JMSAdmin.config and jndi.properties files should contain on the client.
Thanks.
ydsk. |

The only thing left to do is actually use JMS.
You aren't required to set up an JNDI and look up QCFs and etc.
The Using Java manual has samples on how to configure these things at runtime.
It also has an entire chapter on using JMSAdmin.

Actually, the customer downloaded MS0N on the Windows box and we are struggling with the first tab ( URL). Whatever URL we give there it is throwing some error or the other.
We are giving something like this in the first tab of MS0N :
IPAddress of MQ Server : MQport / SVRCONN channel name
We tried several combinations with the above URL but no luck so far.
Can somebody please help.
thanks.

I think all of the functionality in MS0N has been rolled into MQ Explorer v6...

Thank you Jeff.
One last question on this :
Can we install MQExplorer along with MQ v6 client only on Windows ?
Thanks.

Yes, you can install MQ v6 Explorer without installing the server component.
You will need the v6 Server install media to do so, though. This will include the client component.
You should not be building new systems at the v5.3 level, in my opinion. You should be encouraging your client to build this new system at v6.

Yes Jeff, we are at MQv6 for both server and client.
We don't know if MS0N works with v6.
Its documentation says it will work with v5.3 only.....not sure if IBM forgot to update the documentation.
Just wanted to make sure v6 MQ Explorer has all the functionality that MS0N has, before we quit MS0N.
Thanks.

I can't say for sure that all of the functionality of MS0N is in the v6 Explorer - I've never used MS0N.
Everything you *need* to do JMS Administration, however, should be in v6 explorer.

I look at MS0N to be only suitable for a test system.
Your production system should not have any dynamic change of configuration.
The JMSAdmin utility using the file system JNDI is sufficient for my needs in development, and even in production when dealing in a non WAS environment.
Otherwise the JNDI setup should be done / scripted in WAS.
