I need to be able to use RFHUTILC to connect to a QM via a SVRCONN channel that is protected by an exit. It looks like I need to create a channel table to specify all the connection parms. Before I do that, I did read this in the rfhutil manual on Page 7:

Quote:
The client version of the utility can accept a queue manager name from either the
MQSERVER environment variable or an MQSeries client channel table. If the MQSERVER
variable is specified, it will take precedence. In addition, the necessary channel information
can be input directly.


It appears the only way to add connection info directly into the GUI is explained a couple of paragraphs lower in the manual:

Quote:
In any case, regardless of whether the MQSERVER variable is set or a channel table exists,
the necessary channel information can be entered in lieu of a queue manager name, using
the format of the MQSERVER variable.


But this doesn't help if I have Exit (or SSL) parms to specify. I don't see where I can set all these parms in the tool directly. Am I missing a hidden window or something, or do I need to go the channel table route to specify MQCONNX parms not supported by the MQSERVER variable? Or is there a secret syntax to use in the QM Name field where I could manually specify all the MQCONNX parms?

I don't think there's a secret syntax.

I think you specify environment variables to point to client channel table (MQCHLTAB, MQCHLLIB? I always forget what they actually are!), and then use that shell to launch rfhutilc. Then in qmgr name, just put whatever you need to put for the qmgr name to match the client channel table entry of your choice.

Peter, just like the MQServer variable this does not enable you to specify any exits. Now the only way I would know how to do it (SSL) this way would be going through MQIPT.

You'll have to work with the channel table.

Enjoy
