Verify the client installation

 

The group of topics within this section describes how to verify that the WebSphere MQ for Sun Solaris client has been correctly installed and configured.

To verify your WebSphere MQ client installation, we need a WebSphere MQ server with communication links with your client workstation. We can then complete the following tasks in order:

• Set up the server workstation

• Set up the client workstation

• Testing communication between workstations

The verification procedure assumes that:

• TCP/IP is configured and initialized on both the server and the client machines. If you are using SNA, refer to the WebSphere MQ Intercommunications manual.

• The WebSphere MQ server is installed on a Linux or UNIX machine; if this is not the case, some of the commands will be different (for details, refer to the WebSphere MQ Clients book).

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.

• Set up the server workstation
  

• Set up the client workstation
  

• Testing communication between workstations
