Hi All,
I need to integrate Siebel application with Mainframe applications using MQ. We have currently V 2.1 on OS/369 Mainframe. Our Siebel appserver is running on a SOLARIS box. Siebel is provided MQ Client adaptor compatible to V 5.2.
My question is can we install MQ Client V 5.2 on SOLARIS box and still communicate to MQ Server V 2.1 on OS/369?
Help on this regard is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Varaprasad,
You can connect a MQ cleint to MQ server and then use the MQ server communicate to mainframe. For that you will have to compile the application with MQ Client libraries.
the same program that talks to MQ Server cannot talk to MQ Client. You will have to recompile the prog and link it to the cleint libraries. you can get the script to do the same on MQ documents on client connection
Hope this helps you
Regards

The last time I worked with Siebel consultants doing MQ integration, you had to install a MQ server on the same server as the Siebel server (e.g. It did not support MQ client.). I think the version was Siebel Server 2000.
Also, the Siebel MQGET function did NOT support the "convert" option (a real pain). So I had to setup the channel with the convert option set to yes (Mainframe to Solaris).

New version of Siebel can work with MQ CLient via AMI.
You just need to install on mainframe CAF ( Client Attachment Feature ) that enables MQ Client connection. _________________ Regards.

Leonid,
You are right Siebel 7, has the MQ Client Adaptor. I am working with Siebel 7. Currently I am able to work with java MQ Client and the Mainframe MQ Server. Does this mean the Client Attachment Feature is already enabled?
Thanks every one for the reply.

If you can successfully connect with a mq client program (including Java) to the mainframe then yes, you must have CAF installed.
