IBM MQ Overview

IBM MQ

• A member of  websphere family from IBM. Websphere MQ (formally MQseries) is the standard for messaging across multiple platforms, including windows, linux, IBM mainframe and midrange and Unix flavors.
• A middleware product that implements a messaging and queuing framework
• Middleware - an intermediate software component that bridges dissimilar computing environments. 
• WebSphere MQ is your complete universal messaging backbone, enabling rapid, reliable, and secure transport of messages and data between applications, systems, and services.
• It accelerates the flow of messages across organizations without complexity, cutting costs and reducing maintenance, improving business responsiveness and connecting to new solutions and technologies from the mainframe to the mobile enterprise.

"WebSphere MQ is an assured delivery mechanism, which consists of queues managed by Queue Managers. We can put messages onto, and retrieve messages from queues, and the movement of messages between queues is facilitated by components called Channels and Transmission Queues."

IBM WebSphere MQ Client Overview

An IBM WebSphere MQ client is part of the IBM WebSphere MQ product that can be installed on its own, on a separate machine from the MQ server. You can run an IBM WebSphere MQ application on an IBM WebSphere MQ client, which interacts with one or more IBM WebSphere MQ servers. The IBM WebSphere MQ client connects to queue managers by means of a communications protocol. The servers to which the client connects might or might not be part of an IBM WebSphere MQ cluster.

The queues and other IBM WebSphere MQ objects are held on a queue manager that you have installed on an MQ server machine. When the application issues a client call, the IBM WebSphere MQ client directs the request to a queue manager, where it is processed and from where a reply is sent back to the IBM WebSphere MQ client. The link between the MQ application and the IBM WebSphere MQ client is established dynamically at runtime.

Messages Backup On Queues Using Qload & Unload Utility

Create Queue Manager:

                CRTMQM QM1

Start Queue Manager:

                STRMQM QM1

Get RUNMQSC Console For Queue Manager:

                RUNMQSC QM1

Create Two Local Queues:

                DEFINE QLOCAL(Q1)

                DEFINE QLOCAL(Q2)

Put 10 messages into Q1.

Download MO03 Support Pack To Do Following Operations.

Link: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24009368

Unload a Queue to a File

qload –m QM1 –i Q1 –f c:\myfile

Load a Queue from a File

qload –m QM1 –o Q1 –f c:\myfile

Copy the messages from one Queue to another Queue

qload –m QM1 –i Q1 -o Q2 

Copy the first 10 messages from one Queue to another Queue

qload –m QM1 –i Q1 –o Q2 –r#10

Option	Meaning
x	Process message number x only.
x..y	Process message number x through y only
x#y	Process y messages starting from message x
#y	Process y messages starting from the beginning. Note: This is the same as 1#y

Move the messages from one Queue to another Queue

qload –m QM1 –I Q1 –o Q2

Dead Letter Handler Configuration Using Service Object

Configuring the DLQ Handler as a server service object:

To run the DLQ handler as a service, you need to define a server service object in that queue manager. This example uses a batch file and rules table for the DLQ Handler.

Step:1 Configure Dead Letter Queue For Queue Manager:

Define QLocal(DEAD.QUEUE) LIKE(SYSTEM.DEAD.LETTER.QUEUE)

ALTER QMGR DEADQ(DEAD.QUEUE)

ALTER QL(LOCAL-QUEUE-NAME) MAXDEPTH(5)

Step:2 Create Batch File

Contents of dlqhandler.bat

cd "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\bin"

runmqdlq %1 %2 %3

The rules table should be defined with some REASON and ACTION sequence and WAIT (YES), which means that the DLQ Handler waits indefinitely for further messages to arrive on the DLQ.

Step:3 Rules table Content : File Name is-- RULETBL.RUL

WAIT(YES) RETRYINT(20)

REASON(*) ACTION(FWD/RETRY/DISCARD/IGNORE) FWDQ('QUEUENAME') FWDQM('QMGRNAME')

Step:4 Define server service object for DLQ Handler

DEFINE SERVICE(dlqhandler) +

SERVTYPE(SERVER) +

CONTROL(QMGR) +

STARTCMD('C:\IBM\WebSphere\MQ\dlqhandler.bat') +

DESCR('dead letter queue handler as server service') +

STARTARG('DEADQ IBMQMR < C:\IBM\WebSphere\MQ\RULETBL.RUL') +

STDOUT('C:\IBM\WebSphere\MQ\Log.txt') +

STDERR('C:\IBM\WebSphere\MQ\Err.txt') +

REPLACE

You can set CONTROL to MANUAL, QMGR, or STARTONLY based on your requirements. The value of STARTCMD is the absolute path of the executable file dlqhandler.bat (on Windows).

Step:5 Start Service:

Start service(dlqhandler)

Step:6 Display Service Status:

Display SVStatus(dlqhandler)

Step:7 Send 10 Messages From Source 

5 messages are get stored on local queue

5 messages are get stored on DEAD.QUEUE.

Retrieve messages on local queue. dead letter handler will process messages to local queue. 

How To Install IBM MQ On Windows

Installation On Windows

1. Login as Administrator to the destination windows server using Remote Desktop Connection Tool
2. Check hostname of the windows server (command is--- hostname). Hostname should not contain any spaces 

We must check Hardware & Software requirements to proceed our MQSeries installation

•  How much disk space is free. How much disk space is required for our configuration.                 (command is -- dir | find "free") 900MB required for full installation.
• Speed of the processor.
• Hardware type (32 bit or 64 bit)                                                                                                 (command is--- systeminfo) 
• Get MQseries Software Dump to our destination server.
• Check whether MQSeries installation supports our destination platform or not by invoking MQLaunchpad
• Check Eclipse installation required for our MQSeries features.If it is required we must install Eclipse first.

How To Install Eclipse & MQSeries

• Find following path then invoke the setup.exe.                                                                              (Path is ---- MQV7.X/prereqs/IES/setup.exe)
• Find MQLaunchpad in the following path.                                                                                          (Path is ----- MQV7.X/MQLaunch.exe)
• Click On Software requirements in the MQ Installation Wizard. Following wizard shows prerequisite softwares has installed or not

• Click on WebSphereMQ Installation and then click on Launch IBM WebSphere MQ Installer.

• It opens following window. accept the license agreement

• Choose setup type 

• select folder for program files and then click on next

• select Global securityKit files folder and then click on next

• select  log files folder and then click on next

• select features to install in the following window

• In the following window we can have a look what are the features selected to install and then click on install
