Verify a server-to-server installation

 

To verify a server-to-server installation using two servers, one as a sender and one as a receiver, complete the following tasks.

• Set up the sender server

• Set up the receiver server

• Testing communication between the servers

To verify a server-to-server installation we need to check the communications link between the two machines. Before we can do this, ensure that the communications protocol has been installed and configured on both systems. WebSphere MQ for Linux, V6.0 (x86 platform) and WebSphere MQ for Linux, V6.0 (zSeries platform) support both TCP and LU6.2. The network protocol supported by WebSphere MQ for Linux, V6.0 (POWER™ platform) is TCP/IP. The tasks in this section explain how to verify your installation and use TCP in the examples; if you are using an alternative protocol, refer to the WebSphere MQ Intercommunications manual.

The verification procedure assumes that both systems are Linux or UNIX machines; if this is not the case, some of the commands are different (for details, refer to the documentation for that system).

WebSphere MQ object definitions are case-sensitive. Any text entered as an MQSC command in lowercase is converted automatically to uppercase unless you enclose it in single quotation marks. Make sure that you type the examples exactly as shown.
