The batch adapter

Use this information to learn about the batch adapter and the commit protocol it supports.

The batch adapter provides access to IBM MQ for z/OS resources for programs running in:

  • Task (TCB) mode
  • Problem or supervisor state
  • Primary address space control mode

The programs must not be in cross-memory mode.

Connections between application programs and IBM MQ for z/OS are at the task level. The adapter provides a single connection thread from an application task control block (TCB) to IBM MQ for z/OS.

The adapter supports a single-phase commit protocol for changes made to resources owned by IBM MQ for z/OS ; it does not support multiphase-commit protocols.
