Service components

You must specify service component information when you add a new installable service. On Windows systems use regedit, and on UNIX and Linux systems use the ServiceComponent stanza in the qm.ini file. The authorization service stanza is present by default, and the associated component, the OAM, is active.

Specify the service components as follows:

Service= service_name

The name of the required service. This must match the value specified on the Name attribute of the Service configuration information.

Name= component_name

The descriptive name of the service component. This must be unique and contain only characters that are valid for the names of IBM MQ objects (for example, queue names). This name occurs in operator messages generated by the service. We recommend that this name begins with a company trademark or similar distinguishing string.

Module= module_name

The name of the module to contain the code for this component. This must be a full path name.

ComponentDataSize= size

The size, in bytes, of the component data area passed to the component on each call. Specify zero if no component data is required.
