After installation

 

When you have correctly installed WebSphere MQ for iSeries™ on your system:

1. Refer to the WebSphere MQ family Web site at:

       http://www.ibm.com/software/integration/mqfamily

   for the latest product information, and to install and apply all fix packs that are recommended. See also:

       http://www.ibm.com/software/integration/mqfamily/support/summary/

2. Some WebSphere MQ commands, for example CRTMQM (create queue manager) and DLTMQM (delete queue manager), rely on using iSeries system commands for creating and managing objects, files, and libraries. Similarly some WebSphere MQ program code, for example a queue manager, relies on using iSeries system programs.

   To enable this, the commands and programs listed below must either have *PUBLIC *USE authority, or explicit *USE authority to the WebSphere MQ user profiles QMQM and QMQMADM.

   Commands

   Set the authorities for commands using GRTOBJAUT with an OBJTYPE(*CMD) parameter, for example:

   GRTOBJAUT OBJ(QSYS/ADDLIBLE) OBJTYPE(*CMD) USER(QMQMADM) AUT(*USE)

   • QSYS/ADDLIBLE

   • QSYS/ADDPFM

   • QSYS/CALL

   • QSYS/CHGCURLIB

   • QSYS/CHGJOB

   • QSYS/CRTJRN

   • QSYS/CRTJRNRCV

   • QSYS/CRTJOBQ

   • QSYS/CRTJOBD

   • QSYS/CRTLIB

   • QSYS/CRTMSGQ

   • QSYS/CRTPF

   • QSYS/CRTPGM

   • QSYS/CRTSRCPF

   • QSYS/DLTJRN

   • QSYS/DLTJRNRCV

   • QSYS/DLTLIB

   • QSYS/DLTMSGQ

   • QSYS/OVRPRTF

   • QSYS/RCLACTGRP

   • QSYS/RTVJRNE

   • QSYS/RCVJRNE

   • QSYS/SBMJOB

   Programs

   Set the authorities for programs using GRTOBJAUT with an OBJTYPE(*PGM) parameter, for example:

   GRTOBJAUT OBJ(QSYS/QWTSETP) OBJTYPE(*PGM) USER(QMQMADM) AUT(*USE)

   • QSYS/QWTSETP(*PGM)

   • QSYS/QSYRLSPH(*PGM)

   • QSYS/QSYGETPH(*PGM)

3. Where you have more than one computer and a mixture of releases of OS/400 and MQ, compile CL programs either on the computer they will run on, or on one with an identical combination of releases of OS/400 and MQ.

   Up to OS/400 V4R5M0, the library QSYSVvRrMm potentially contains MQ commands. In later releases of OS/400 this is not the case.

   So, for example, if you have upgraded a system to OS/400 V5R1M0 and MQ V5R2 and you compile a CL program with target release *PRV or V4R5M0, the compile fails.

   To avoid this, when you install later versions of MQ, delete all MQ commands from previous releases in any QSYSVvRrMm libraries using the QSYS/DLTCMD command.

4. If you have never installed WebSphere MQ or MQSeries on your system before (that is, you are not doing a migration), perform the following tasks:

   1. Start the WebSphere MQ subsystem, by issuing the command:

       STRSBS SBSD(QMQM/QMQM)

      The subsystem must be started after each IPL of the system, so you might choose to start it as part of your system startup process.

   2. Make all user profiles that will be used for creating and administering queue managers, members of the group profile QMQMADM, using the command CHGUSRPRF.

   3. The default TCP channel listener in WebSphere MQ for iSeries, V6.0 is a threaded listener, which starts threaded channels. If you want to run non-threaded TCP channel listeners in WebSphere MQ for iSeries, V6, add an attribute to the CHANNELS stanza of each queue manager's qm.ini file. The attribute is ThreadedListener=No. Information about qm.ini files is in the WebSphere MQ for iSeries, V6.0 System Administration Guide.

You are now ready to start using WebSphere MQ for iSeries.
