About this task

Perform the following steps to configure a new MQ connection factory:

 

Procedure

  1. Identify the parent ID:

    • Using Jacl:

      set newjmsp [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/JMSProvider:WebSphere MQ JMS Provider/]
      

    • Using Jython

      newjmsp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:myNode/JMSProvider:WebSphere MQ JMS Provider')
      print newjmsp
      

    Example output:

    WebSphere MQ JMS Provider(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#builtin_mqprovider)
    

  2. Get required attributes:

    • Using Jacl:

      $AdminConfig required MQConnectionFactory
      

    • Using Jython

      print AdminConfig.required('MQConnectionFactory')
      

    Example output:

    ttribute       Type
    name                   String
    jndiName                String
    connectionPool        ConnectionPool
    

  3. Set up required attributes:

    • Using Jacl:

      set name [list name MQCF]
      set jndi [list jndiName jms/MQCF]
      set mqcfAttrs [list $name $jndi]
      

      Example output:

      {name MQCF} {jndiName jms/MQCF}
      

    • Using Jython

      name = ['name', 'MQCF']
      jndi = ['jndiName', 'jms/MQCF']
      mqcfAttrs = [name, jndi]
      print mqcfAttrs
      

      Example output:

      [[name, MQCF], [jndiName, jms/MQCF]]
      

  4. Set up a template:

    • Using Jacl:

      set template [lindex [$AdminConfig listTemplates MQConnectionFactory] 0]
      

    • Using Jython

      import java
      lineseparator = java.lang.System.getProperty('line.separator')
      template = AdminConfig.listTemplates('MQConnectionFactory').split(lineseparator)[0]
      print template 
      

    Example output:

    Example non-XA WMQ ConnectionFactory(templates/
    system:JMS-resource-provider-templates.xml
    #MQConnectionFactory_3)
    
    

  5. Create MQ connection factory:

    • Using Jacl:

      $AdminConfig createUsingTemplate MQConnectionFactory 
      $newjmsp $mqcfAttrs $template
      

    • Using Jython

      print AdminConfig.createUsingTemplate('MQConnectionFactory', 
      newjmsp, mqcfAttrs, template)
      

    Example output:

    MQCF(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode:resources.xml#MQConnectionFactory_1)
    

  6. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.

  7. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the Synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
