Client hardware

 

This section outlines the hardware requirements for a WebSphere MQ for Windows client only. However, the hardware requirements for the WebSphere MQ for Windows server environment are similar. For details, see Server hardware.

A WebSphere MQ client can run on Windows 2000, Windows 2003 or Windows XP. The client can run on any IBM PC machine or equivalent that is certified as Windows compatible (including a suitable monitor for the operating system). There must be enough random access memory (RAM) and disk storage for the programming prerequisites (below), the WebSphere MQ client, the access methods, and the application programs.
