Channel configuration for z/OS

To implement the example channels, there is some configuration necessary on the z/OS queue manager.

The following sections detail the configuration to be performed on the z/OS queue manager to implement the channel described in Example IBM MQ configuration for all platforms.

Examples are given for connecting IBM MQ for z/OS and IBM MQ for Windows. To connect to IBM MQ on another platform use the appropriate set of values from the table in place of the values for Windows.

Note: The words in bold are user-specified and reflect the names of IBM MQ objects used throughout these examples. If we change the names used here, ensure that you also change the other references made to these objects throughout this section. All others are keywords and must be entered as shown.
