IBM® MQ, formerly WebSphere MQ, is messaging middleware that simplifies and accelerates the integration of diverse applications and data across multiple platforms.

It uses message queues to exchange information and offers a single messaging solution for cloud, on premise, mobile and IoT environments.


Do not miss it

Do not forget to install vendor libraries! For details see topic below.


To configure WebSphereMQ connection you have to fill following parameters:

  • region                - concrete Oracle SID of your region name
  • transport type   - usually it equals 1
  • port                    - WebSphere port for client connections
  • channel              - WebSphere channel name
  • queue manager - WebSphere Queue Manager name
  • host name          - address of WebSphereMQ

These are minimal required configuration parameters.

All optional parameters can be omitted (do not include them in config for just in case).


connections.json
{
    "Region": "Oracle SID of the region", /*Oracle SID of region name to which this config belongs*/
    "Connections": [
        {
            "ConnectionName": "default.wmq.connection", /* connection name. Do NOT use underscore character ("_") in name */
            "ComponentName": "wmq", /* name of component */
            "Parameters": {
                "transportType": 1, /* sets the transport type */
                "port": 1414,       /* sets the port for a client connection */
                "channel": "S_eglwwvm24c",  /* sets the name of the channel - applies to client transport mode only */
                "queueManager": "QM_eglwwvm24c", /* sets the name of the queue manager */
                "HostName": "1.2.3.4"  /* Sets the name of the host (or IP) */

            ,   "ClientID": "enterprise" /* optional: sets the client ID */
			,	"CCSID": 1	 /* optional: sets the character set to be used when connecting to the queue manager */
			,	"clientReconnectTimeout": 10 /* optional: set the amount of time, in seconds, that a client connection will attempt to reconnect */
            },
            "UseConnectionPool": true,  /* optional */
            "SessionCacheSize":  50    /* optional: size of connection pool */
