IBM MQ client links [Collection]

IBM MQ client links [Collection]

An IBM MQ client link presents the messaging engine, and therefore the bus, as an IBM MQ queue manager to which IBM MQ clients can attach. This behavior enables WAS v5 JMS clients to use messaging resources on the bus.

To view this page in the console, click the following path:

Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Topology] Messaging engines -> engine_name -> [Additional Properties] IBM MQ client links.

To browse or change the properties of a listed item, select its name in the list.

To act on one or more of the listed items, select the check boxes next to the names of the items to act on, then use the buttons provided.

To change which entries are listed, or to change the level of detail displayed for those entries, use the Filter settings.

If IBM MQ functionality has been disabled at any scope, an informational message indicating that IBM MQ has been disabled is displayed. In a single server environment this informational message is only displayed when the server is restarted after IBM MQ functionality has been disabled. In a network deployment environment the informational message is displayed immediately. See Disable IBM MQ functionality in WAS.
