Chapter 35. Example configuration - WebSphere MQ for z/OS using queue-sharing groups

This chapter gives an example of how to set up communication links into a queue-sharing group on WebSphere MQ for z/OS or MQSeries for OS/390 to WebSphere MQ products on the following platforms:

• OS/2
• Windows
• AIX

(You can also connect any of the following:

z/OS to z/OS

z/OS to MVS/ESA

Setting up communication links from a queue-sharing group to a distributed platform is the same as described in Chapter 26, Example configuration - IBM WebSphere MQ for z/OS. There are examples to other platforms in that chapter.

First it describes the parameters needed for an LU 6.2 connection; then it describes:

• Establishing an LU 6.2 connection into a queue-sharing group
• Establishing a TCP connection into a queue-sharing group

When the connection is established, you need to define some channels to complete the configuration. This is described in WebSphere MQ for z/OS shared channel configuration.

See Chapter 7, Example configuration chapters in this book for background information about this chapter and how to use it.
