IBM MQ and HP NonStop TMF

IBM MQ client for HP Integrity NonStop Server can participate in HP NonStop Transaction Management Facility (HP NonStop TMF) coordinated units of work. Coordinating transactions with HP NonStop TMF is only supported where the queue manager is at IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.1 or later.

The IBM MQ provided TMF/Gateway converts transactions from TMF coordination into eXtended Architecture (XA) transaction coordination to communicate with the remote queue manager. The IBM MQ provided TMF/Gateway is the bridge between TMF and queue manager transactions, using the services provided by HP NonStop TMF, and has been designed to run in a Pathway environment.

HP NonStop TMF software provides transaction protection and database consistency in demanding environments. For more information about HP NonStop TMF, see HP NonStop TMF Introduction.
