IBM MQ Debian components for Linux Ubuntu systems
We can select the components that you require when you install IBM MQ .
Table 1 shows the components that are available when installing an IBM MQ server or client on a Linux Ubuntu system using the Debian installer:
Component Description Server media Client media Debian package name Runtime Contains files that are common to both server and client installations. Note: ibmmq-runtime component must be installed. ibmmq-runtime
Server We can use the server to run queue managers on the system and connect to other systems over a network. Provides messaging and queuing services to applications, and support for IBM MQ client connections. ibmmq-server
Standard Client The IBM MQ MQI client is a small subset of IBM MQ, without a queue manager, that uses the queue manager and queues on other (server) systems. It can be used only when the system it is on is connected to another system that is running a full server version of IBM MQ. The client and the server can be on the same system if required. ibmmq-client
SDK The SDK is required for compiling applications. It includes sample source files, and the bindings (files .H, .LIB, .DLL, and others), that we need to develop applications to run on IBM MQ. ibmmq-sdk
Sample programs The sample application programs are needed if we want to check the IBM MQ installation using the verification procedures. ibmmq-samples
Java messaging The files needed for messaging using Java (includes Java Message Service). ibmmq-java
Man pages UNIX man pages, in U.S. English, for: control commands
MQI calls
MQSC commandsibmmq-man
Java JRE A Java Runtime Environment that is used by those parts of IBM MQ that are written in Java. ibmmq-jre
Message Catalogs For available languages, see the table of message catalogs that follows. IBM Global Security Kit IBM Global Security Kit V8 Certificate and TLS, Base Runtime. ibmmq-gskit
Telemetry Service MQ Telemetry supports the connection of Internet Of Things (IOT) devices (that is, remote sensors, actuators and telemetry devices) that use the IBM MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol. The telemetry service, which is also know as the MQXR service, enables a queue manager to act as an MQTT server, and communicate with MQTT client apps. The telemetry service is only available on Linux for x86-64 (64 bit) and Linux for IBM Z.
A set of MQTT client libraries is also available in the the MA9C: IBM Messaging Telemetry Clients. These libraries help you write the MQTT client apps that IOT devices use to communicate with MQTT servers.
ibmmq-xrservice
IBM MQ Explorer Use IBM MQ Explorer to administer and monitor resources on Linux x86-64 systems. Also available using a stand-alone installer from Fix Central.Note: IBM MQ Explorer is available only on Linux for x86-64 (64 bit). ibmmq-explorer
Managed File Transfer MQ Managed File Transfer transfers files between systems in a managed and auditable way, regardless of file size or the operating systems used. For information about the function of each component, see Managed File Transfer product options. ibmmq-ftagent
ibmmq-ftbase
ibmmq-ftlogger
ibmmq-ftservice
ibmmq-fttoolsAdvanced Message Security Provides a high level of protection for sensitive data flowing through the IBM MQ network, while not impacting the end applications. We must install this component on all IBM MQ installations that host queues we want to protect. You must install the IBM Global Security Kit component on any IBM MQ installation that is used by a program that puts or gets messages to or from a protected queue, unless we are using only Java client connections.
We must install the Java JRE component to install this component.
ibmmq-ams
AMQP Service Install this component to make AMQP channels available. AMQP channels support MQ Light APIs. We can use AMQP channels to give AMQP applications access to the enterprise-level messaging facilities provided by IBM MQ. ibmmq-amqp
REST API and Console Adds HTTP based administration for IBM MQ through the REST API and IBM MQ Console. ibmmq-web
IBM MQ Bridge to Salesforce Install the IBM MQ Bridge to Salesforce to configure the connections to Salesforce and IBM MQ, then run the command runmqsfb to subscribe to events from Salesforce and publish them to an IBM MQ network. Note: The IBM MQ Bridge to Salesforce is available only on Linux for x86-64 (64 bit). ibmmq-sfbridge
IBM MQ Bridge to blockchain Install the IBM MQ Bridge to blockchain to send queries and updates to, and receive responses from your blockchain network. Note: The IBM MQ Bridge to blockchain is available only on Linux for x86-64 (64 bit). ibmmq-bcbridge
