Work with WebSphere MQ queue connection factory properties files

We can use properties files to create or change WebSphere MQ queue connection factory properties.

Determine the changes to make to your WebSphere MQ queue connection factory configuration or its configuration objects.

Start wsadmin.sh.

To start wsadmin using the Jython language, run the wsadmin -lang Jython command from the bin directory of the server profile.

Use a properties file, you can create, modify, or delete a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory object and its configuration properties.

Run administrative commands using wsadmin to create or change a properties file for a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory, validate the properties, and apply them to the configuration.

Actions for WebSphere MQ queue connection factory properties files. We can create, modify, and delete MQ queue connection factory configuration properties.

Action	Procedure
create	Set properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
modify	Edit properties and then run the applyConfigProperties command.
delete	Uncomment #DELETE=true and run deleteConfigProperties.

Optionally, you can use interactive mode with the commands:

AdminTask.command_name('-interactive')

Procedure

• Create a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory and its properties.

  1. Create a properties file for an MQQueueConnectionFactory object.

     Open an editor and create a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory properties file. We can copy the example properties file in this step into an editor and modify the properties as needed for your situation. The example defines a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory named myJndiName under a JMSProvider at cell scope:

     #
     # Header
     #
     ResourceType=MQQueueConnectionFactory
     ImplementingResourceType=JMSProvider
     ResourceId=Cell=!{cellName}:JMSProvider=WebSphere MQ JMS Provider:MQQueueConnectionFactory=jndiName#myJndiName
     #DELETE=true
     #
     #Properties
     #
     wmqServerSvrconnChannel=null
     diagnoseConnectionUsage=false #boolean,default(false)
     CCSID=null
     rcvExit=null
     wmqServerName=null
     sslConfiguration=null
     host=null
     category=null
     tempModel=null
     replyWithRFH2=AS_REPLY_DEST #ENUM(AS_REPLY_DEST|ALWAYS),default(AS_REPLY_DEST)
     secExit=null
     name=myName #required
     xaRecoveryAuthAlias=null
     description=null
     useConnectionPooling=true #boolean,default(true)
     manageCachedHandles=false #boolean,default(false)
     wmqServerEndpoint=null
     provider=WebSphere MQ JMS Provider #ObjectName(JMSProvider),readonly
     ccdtUrl=null
     providerVersion=null
     sslResetCount=0 #integer,default(0)
     secExitInitData=null
     pollingInterval=5000 #integer,default(5000)
     msgRetention=true #boolean,default(true)
     jndiName= myJndiName #required
     queueManager=null
     sendExit=null
     authMechanismPreference=BASIC_PASSWORD #ENUM(BASIC_PASSWORD|KERBEROS),default(BASIC_PASSWORD)
     sendExitInitData=null
     maxBatchSize=10 #integer,default(10)
     tempQueuePrefix=null
     XAEnabled=true #boolean,default(true)
     providerType=null #readonly
     channel=null
     rcvExitInitData=null
     port=0 #integer,default(0)
     authDataAlias=null
     sslPeerName=null
     rescanInterval=6000 #integer,default(5000)
     compressHeaders=NONE #ENUM(SYSTEM|NONE),default(NONE)
     failIfQuiesce=true #boolean,default(true)
     clientID=null
     localAddress=null
     sslCRL=null
     logMissingTransactionContext=true #boolean,default(true)
     transportType=BINDINGS #ENUM(BINDINGS_THEN_CLIENT|DIRECTHTTP|BINDINGS|DIRECT|CLIENT),default(BINDINGS)
     sslCipherSuite=null
     compressPayload=NONE #ENUM(ZLIBHIGH|ZLIBFAST|RLE|NONE),default(NONE)
     qmgrType=QMGR #ENUM(QSG|QMGR),default(QMGR)
     sslType=NONE #ENUM(CENTRAL|SPECIFIC|NONE),default(NONE)
     
     
     EnvironmentVariablesSection
     #
     #
     #Environment Variables
     cellName=WASCell06
     

  2. Run applyConfigProperties to create a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory configuration.

     Run the applyConfigProperties command applies the properties file to the configuration. In this Jython example, the optional -reportFileName parameter produces a report named report.txt:

     AdminTask.applyConfigProperties(['-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt '])
     

• Modify an existing WebSphere MQ queue connection factory.
  1. Obtain a properties file for the WebSphere MQ queue connection factory that to change.

     We can extract a properties file for an MQQueueConnectionFactory object using the extractConfigProperties command.

  2. Open the properties file in an editor and change the properties as needed.

     Ensure that the environment variables in the properties file match the system.

  3. Run applyConfigProperties to change a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory configuration.

• If you no longer need a WebSphere MQ queue connection factory, you can delete the entire WebSphere MQ queue connection factory object.

  To delete the entire object, specify DELETE=true in the header section of the properties file and run the deleteConfigProperties command; for example:

  AdminTask.deleteConfigProperties('[-propertiesFileName myObjectType.props -reportFileName report.txt]')
  

Results

We can use the properties file to configure and manage the WebSphere MQ queue connection factory object.

What to do next

Save the changes to the configuration.
Extract properties files using wsadmin.sh
Create server, cluster, application, or authorization group objects using properties files and wsadmin scripting
Delete server, cluster, application, or authorization group objects using properties files
