Configuring
  • WebSphere MQ graphical checklists (Techdoc)
    Download graphical tools that generate WebSphere MQ setup scripts for Q replication and event publishing.
  • WebSphere MQ access download (Download)
    Upgrades the Replication Center to display and validate WebSphere MQ queue managers and queues and send test messages to check your configuration.
  • WebSphere MQ setup scripts for Q replication (Techdoc)
    Provides scripts that you can download and run to define WebSphere MQ queues and channels for Q replication on Linux, UNIX, and Windows operating systems.
  • Setting up WebSphere MQ for Q replication and event publishing (Information Center)
    Topics include sample commands for creating WebSphere MQ objects, objects required for different replication configurations, required settings, and memory, storage, and authorization requirements.
  • Setting up user IDs and passwords (Information Center)
    Topics explain required authorities and privileges for Q replication, and storing user IDs and passwords in an encrypted password file.
  • Configuring servers (Information Center)
    Topics explain connectivity requirements, configuring databases, and creating the infrastructure for Q replication (the control tables).
  • Q replication to Oracle and Sybase (Article)
    IBM developerWorks article describes Q replication's federated capability and helps you set up replication to Oracle and Sybase targets.

Administering
  • Setting up unidirectional replication (Information Center)
    Topics describe how to create one-way Q subscriptions, how to specify the queues that you need, and how to manipulate source data.
  • Setting up multidirectional replication (Information Center)
    Topics describe how to create Q subscriptions for bidirectional and peer-to-peer replication and how to specify the queues that you need.
  • Q replication to federated targets (Information Center)
    Topics describe how to create control tables, Q subscriptions, and federated objects for replication to Oracle, Sybase, Informix, Microsoft SQL Server, and Teradata.
  • Operating a Q Capture program (Information Center)
    Topics describe how to start, stop, and change parameters for the program that reads the database log and puts source table changes on queues as messages.
  • Operating a Q Apply program (Information Center)
    Topics describe how to start, stop, and change parameters for the program that gets messages from queues and applies them to target tables.
  • Changing a Q replication environment (Information Center)
    Topics describe how to change, drop, and delete Q replication objects and make other changes to a Q replication environment.

Monitoring and tuning
  • Q Replication Tools (Download)
    Download tools to help configure, monitor, and troubleshoot Q replication and event publishing.
  • Replication Alert Monitor (Information Center)
    Topics describe how to create and operate a Monitor and include information about system commands and control tables.
  • Q replication tuning (Information Center)
    Topics explain how to tune DB2, the replication programs, and WebSphere MQ for optimal Q replication performance.
  • WebSphere Information Integrator Q replication: Performance considerations (White paper)
    Details Q replication architecture, levels of performance to expect, and factors influencing performance. Provides laboratory measurements on AIX and z/OS platforms.
  • IBM Tivoli monitoring for Q Replication (White paper)
    How to access Q replication monitoring information, bring the data into the Tivoli platform, and use Tivoli alerts and situations when critical Q replication events occur.
