Set a unified connection factory for the WebSphere MQ messaging provider
Use this task to set the configuration of an existing domain-independent connection factory for the WebSphere MQ messaging provider on a WAS Version 7 node.
With JMS 1.1, domain-independent (unified) connection factories are preferred to domain-specific queue connection factories and topic connection factories. To browse or change a queue connection factory or topic connection factory, or to create a connection factory, see the related tasks.
To view or change the configuration of an existing connection factory for use with the WebSphere MQ messaging provider, use the admin console to complete the following steps:
- In the navigation pane, click Resources > JMS > Connection factories .
A list of existing unified connection factories, with a summary of their properties, is displayed in a Connection factory collection form.
- Select the Scope corresponding to the scope at which the connection factory is visible to applications.
- Click the name of the connection factory that you want to set. Configuration details for the unified connection factory are displayed in a WebSphere MQ messaging provider connection factory settings form.
- Under General Properties make modifications as necessary.
For information about each of the available fields, see the WebSphere MQ messaging provider connection factory settings form.
If this connection factory is used to connect to a queue manager or queue-sharing group on a WebSphere MQ for z/OS system, enter the value 6.0.0.0 in the Provider version property. The connection factory must use this provider version value regardless of the version of WebSphere MQ for z/OS to which it connects. The Provider version property is in the Advanced section of the General Properties.
- Click Apply to save the configuration.
- Click Advanced properties to display or change the list of advanced properties of the connection factory.
- Click Broker properties to display or change the list of broker properties of the connection factory.
- Click Custom properties to display or change the list of custom properties of the connection factory.
- Click Client transport properties to display or change the list of client transport properties of the connection factory. This link is only present on the explicitly-defined variation of this panel, where you enter all information required to connect to WebSphere MQ. This link does not appear for the CCDT-based variation.
- Click Connection pools to display or change the connection pools detail of the connection factory.
- Click Session pools to display or change the session pools detail of the connection factory.
- Click OK.
- Save the changes to the master configuration.
- To make the changed configuration take effect, stop then restart the appserver.
