Hi,
We are currently running WebSphere MQ 5.3.12 without gskit installed.
We are looking to use SSL in some future project work and are in planning phase.
My question is can i install GSKit seperately so that we can use SSL for our channels without having to stop our queue managers on the box as we run 24*7 at high traffic rates and cannot afford much downtime. I dont know if I will be able to bring down the production queue managers so may need to look at getting new hardware in if I cannot upgrade.
We do have a migration plan to V6 next year where I can install gskit but I would prefer not to have to wait unitl that is finished before implementing SSL.
Does anyone have experience of migrating to SSL on a production system where SSL supports was not installed.
Any info appreciated _________________ Keith Guttridge

Gskit can be installed anytime it is not dependent on MQ, ( I guess it is gsk6bas or gsk5bas )
the real issue is with ,MQM-KEYMAN WebSphere MQ SSL Key management, and this fileset needs to installed with MQSeries Software.
AFAIK , the only way to upgrade is to have the downtime , i.e to shutdown the
pkgparam mqm CLASSES, should list what is installed |

Why wouldn't you have a plan to go to IBM MQ V7.0.1 then immediately to V8? |

This thread dates from 2006. Why did you open this one again? What was the purpose of your post? _________________ WMQ User since 1999

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions. |

A worthy associate has pointed out that KeeferG (whom I quoted) must have deleted his post before I hit the submit button... You will notice an odd gap.
I guess that's what the "Preview" button is for (but I wasn't paying that close of attention). |
