IBM MQ libraries and the WebSphere Application Server for z/OS STEPLIB

If you want to connect a WebSphere® Application Server connection factory to an IBM MQ queue manger in bindings mode, you must specify the correct IBM MQ libraries in the WebSphere Application Server STEPLIB concatenation.

You must specify two libraries in the STEPLIB if you do not require the option to use a default queue manger. If you do require the option to use a default queue manager, you must specify three libraries.

The following two libraries must be specified in the WebSphere Application Server STEPLIB to enable a bindings connection:
Note: A "bindings" connection is often used when WebSphere Application Server and IBM MQ are running on the same host. This is a cross-memory connection that is used to communicate with a queue manager. A bindings connection is also known as "call attach".
thlqual.SCSQANLx
This library contains error message information for your national language. The letter x represents the letter for your national language.
thlqual.SCSQAUTH
This library contains the code which the IBM MQ client code within WebSphere Application Server communicates with.
The following three libraries must be specified in the WebSphere Application Server STEPLIB to enable a bindings connection:

thlqual.SCSQANLx

thlqual.SCSQAUTH
This library contains the code which the IBM MQ client code within WebSphere Application Server communicates with.
The name of the library that contains the CSQBDEFV program which names the default queue manager in your IBM MQ configuration
Contact your IBM MQ administrator to find out the name of this library.
If you do not have an existing IBM MQ library containing the CSQBDEFV program, you can set it up by following the steps in Task 19: Set Batch, TSO, and RRS adapters in the IBM MQ documentation.
